Things My Son Needs to Know about the World by Fredrik Backman

funny

4.0
This is a humorous set of essays about life and how to live it. They appear to be drawn from the author's personal experience, though it's hard to tell how much was embellished for the sake of humor. Still, whether partly or entirely true, they have good morals and you can tell they come from a place of love.

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'.
