I knew I had to read this from the title alone. I mean, that is a great title. I thought it was going to be along the lines of A Man Called Ove, but other than an elderly main character it really is nothing like it. The story moves between now (crawling out the window and all that happens) and Allan's fantastic life. 
Feel-good, heart-warming, laugh-out-loud funny and a character that has lived his 100 years well.
