"he's never understood young people who bang on about 'finding themselves'...all they ever talk about was how they wanted more 'leisure time', as if that was the only point of working: to get to the point when one didn't have to do it"

OH MY GODDDDDD.
ive been called out five times in THIS PAGE 😭😭😭

stopppppp

"and ove didn't know exactly when he became so quiet. he'd always been a taciturn, but this was something quite different. maybe he had started talking more inside his own head. maybe he was going insane (he did wonder sometimes). it was as if he didn't want other people to talk to him, he was afraid that their chattering voices would drown out the memory of her voice."

why is this book so funny i camt "a dubbed version of you" 😭

"bent, are you?" 😭

"so there were certainly people who thought that feelings could not be judged by looking at cars. but they were wrong"
the selling the volvo thing hit me so hard oh my god SCREW YOU RUNE'S SON

"maybe ove never forgave rune for having a son he could not even get along with. maybe rune never forgave ove for not being able to forgive him for it. maybe neither of them forgave themselves for not being able to give the women they loved more than anything what they wanted more than anything."

this is hilarious
