About this item

Meet Ove. He?s a curmudgeon ? the kind of man who points at people he dislikes. He has staunch principles, strict routines, and a short fuse. People call him "the bitter neighbor from hell." But behind the cranky exterior there is a story and a sadness. So when one November day a chatty young couple with two young daughters moves in next door and accidentally flattens Ove?s mailbox, it is the lead-in to a comical and heartwarming tale.
