Not my favorite Backman, nor one I find particularly memorable. Maybe because I don't think I'll ever be having any kids of my own.
I liked the perspective from a person with mental health issues pondering on the decision of having children and how he goes about that after said children are born. I also liked how he basically says that he likes his own kids, not everyone else's; funny and valid.
Still I love his writing so much, I'd read his grocery list.

I'd be curious to learn Swedish just to be able to tease out what parts of Backman's brilliance is his own vs. his translators'.
