Another book that should not be read while your partner is sleeping. An enjoyable read.

This was actually a very clever book - it chronicles the adventures of the 100 year old Swedish man throughout his life where he changes history in many events usually by some chance or random action on his part. However, I never really got into it - the writing at times was humorous but very repetitive(maybe to cater to an elderly reading audience haha). And the word vodka was mentioned more times than in any other book I have ever read - Absolutely!
