A story full of humor, feeling and wisdom, which takes us into the world of an endearing and unforgettable protagonist. Ove is not the typical neighbor you like to meet in the neighborhood. He is a rondinaire, a heavy man who insists to the point of exaggeration on maintaining order and discipline. He is almost sixty years old and is a resentful loner to whom destiny has taken away too many things. However, in Ove's life there is something that is about to change. A series of fortuitous circumstances gradually restore his faith in the human race. And at the same time the people around him begin to understand that the neighborhood would not be the same without the murri of Ove. It would be a colder, less supportive and, although it seems hard to believe, much less fun place... because, in the end, everyone loves Ove.
