IMHO Backman is a literary genius. This raw, funny and emotional journey will leave you in tears-- he's sure to cause a tissue shortage with this one.
Most people don't even notice the three tiny figures in the corner of one of the world's most famous paintings. Louisa sees them and is determined to find out their story. In a distant town, 25 years earlier, these lost souls find in each other a reason to get up each morning. From their time together, a transcendent work of art emerges.
