The 100-Year-Old Man Who Climbed Out the Window and Disappeared

By Jonas Jonasson


Desperate to avoid his 100 hundredth birthday party at the old folks' home, Allan Karlsson climbs out of his window and heads off to begin a new adventure. The chapters of Allan's story alternate between past and present memories revealing comical interactions with historical figures from all over the globe.

Our Tuesday Night Book Club seldom agrees on whether or not we enjoy a book, but we all really enjoyed this one. Some of us chuckled, some guffawed, and others laughed out loud! Give this book a try if you want to be entertained in a refreshing way!
