But seriously, I went into this not expecting much, but Backman uses basic callback techniques to remind the reader of events from earlier in the book. At first, I thought it was a cheap technique, but it makes sense later in the book as you learn more about the complexities of Ove and co. and you can't continue without understanding and remembering those details and emotions. It was a nice easy read, but I will admit I cried every time I opened the book. Not for the weak.
