Instant New York Times Bestseller! A small community
tucked deep in the forest, Beartown is home to tough,
hardworking people who don’t expect life to be easy or fair. No
matter how difficult times get, they’ve always been able to take
pride in their local ice hockey team. So it’s a cruel blow when
they hear that their town’s ice hockey club might soon be
disbanded. What makes it worse is the obvious satisfaction that
all the former Beartown players, who now play for a rival team
in the neighboring town of Hed, take in that fact. But the
arrival of a newcomer gives Beartown hockey a chance at a
comeback. Here is a declaration of love for all the big and
small, bright and dark stories that give form and color to our
communities. With immense compassion and insight, Fredrik
Backman reveals how loyalty, friendship, and kindness can carry
a town through its most challenging days.
Characters: 32. Amazon rating: 4 1/2 stars. Genre: Fiction.
