Missing the signature "Backman prose"—unusual, elegant, and touching? Check out "Anxious People"—a reminder that each of us carries a bag of pain, one we carry around with us everywhere and don't know where to put it.

A brave eighty-year-old woman, an IKEA-addicted couple, a pregnant woman, a multimillionaire seeking to end his life... these and several others have become hostages of a hapless robber. He wanted easy money and a bank robbery, but luck has never been his strong suit. And now he's forced to hide from the police in a neighboring apartment. Taking eight hostages was definitely not part of his plan. And especially not the deepest stories they begin to share. "Anxious People" is a whole gallery of vulnerable characters, a subtle observation of human nature by Backman, woven from flaws and imperfections and therefore alive.
