«The 100-Year-Old Man Who Climbed Out the Window and Disappeared» is Jonas Jonasson's humorous novel, in paperback (463 pages, in English).
On turning one hundred, Allan Karlsson escapes his residence through the window and finds himself in a farcical flight with a suitcase full of money, criminals, a hot dog vendor, and an elephant. His past as an explosives expert connects him with Stalin, Churchill, and Truman in an absurd comedy about starting over.
This work is the first installment of the «The Hundred-Year-Old Man» series, originally published in Swedish in 2009 as «Hundraåringen som klev ut genom fönstret och försvann».
For readers of absurd humor and novels with a historical backdrop, also suitable for book clubs.
