Nordic Book Club, November
November's book is Anxious People: A Novel by Fredrick Backman.
From the #1 New York Times bestselling author of A Man Called Ove and “writer of astonishing depth” (The Washington Times) comes a poignant, charming novel about a crime that never took place, a would-be bank robber who disappears into thin air, and eight extremely anxious strangers who find they have more in common than they ever imagined.
Join the Swenson Center's monthly book club to discuss books on Nordic topics or by Nordic authors.
