Acerca de esta escucha

The New York Times best-selling author of A Man Called Ove, My Grandmother Asked Me to Tell You She's Sorry, and Britt-Marie Was Here offers an exquisitely moving portrait of an elderly man's struggle to hold on to his most precious memories and his family's efforts to care for him - even as they must find a way to let go.

"Isn't that the best of all life's ages, an old man thinks as he looks at his grandchild, when a boy is just big enough to know how the world works but still young enough to refuse to accept it?"

Grandpa and Noah are sitting on a bench in a square that keeps getting smaller every day. The square is strange but also familiar, full of the odds and ends that have made up their lives: Grandpa's work desk, the stuffed dragon that Grandpa once gave to Noah, the sweet-smelling hyacinths that Grandma loved to grow in her garden.

As they wait together on the bench, they tell jokes and discuss their shared love of mathematics. Grandpa recalls what it was like to fall in love with his wife, what it was like to lose her. She's as real to him now as the first day he met her, but he dreads the day when he won't remember her.

Sometimes Grandpa sits on the bench next to Ted, Noah's father - Ted who never liked math, prefers writing and playing guitar, and has waited his entire life for his father to have time for him, to accept him. But in their love of Noah, they have found a common bond.

Grandpa, Grandma, Ted, and Noah all meet here, in this peculiar space that is growing dimmer and more confusing all the time. And here is where they will learn to say good-bye, the scent of hyacinths in the air, nothing to fear.

This little book with a big message is certain to be treasured for generations to come.

Really enjoyed the thought behind this book. Loved the idea of a little boy sitting with his Grandpa listening to his stories. Everyone should take the time to listen to the stories our seniors have to tell. We can learn so much.

Good Story Line

Fredrik Backman is a genius. This is the 4th book of his I've listened to and each have been superb. This one is like a short manifesto on what it is to love, be loved, and lose our memories, which are like pieces of ourselves. It's beautiful, sad, funny and true.

Brilliant!

Earlier this year I picked up, Brit Marie Was Here by Fredrik Backman. I found myself crying and laughing and sad when the book was finished. I recently came across this book in my audible wishlist and tried it out. The story is beautiful, memorable, poignant, and penetrates your soul. The narrator was flawless.

I keep a journal of beautiful and profound thoughts I find in books...I would have had to quote the entire novella in my journal.

I listened to it. Digested the story. I listened again. I bought a hard copy and gave it to my son who has an intense bond with his grandfather. I listened to it again. I can see myself revisiting this little gem often.

I would like to thank the author if I could. The conversations grandpa has with his wife remind me of the conversations I have with my husband. It is the little moments in life that make the big impacts.

I could listen again and again and again
