It all starts on the one-hundredth birthday of Allan Karlsson. Sitting quietly in his room in an old people's home, he is waiting for the party he-never-wanted-anyway to begin. The mayor is going to be there. The press is going to be there. But, as it turns out, Allan is not...Slowly but surely Allan climbs out of his bedroom window, into the flowerbed (in his slippers) and makes his getaway. And so begins his picaresque and unlikely journey involving criminals, several murders, a suitcase full of cash, and incompetent police. As his escapades unfold, we learn something of Allan's earlier life in which - remarkably - he helped to make the atom bomb, became friends with American presidents, Russian tyrants, and Chinese leaders, and was a participant behind the scenes in many key events of the twentieth century. Already a huge bestseller across Europe, The Hundred-Year-Old Man Who Climbed Out of the Window and Disappeared is a fun, feel-good book for all ages. Translated by Rod Bradbury.

读后感

电影英文版在英国刚公映。不过整场只有我一个人实在好寂寞。虽然一个人抱着爆米花还是笑的好开心。豆瓣电影居然还没有这部片子。只能跑到书评这边来点赞。实在太强大。真是完全败给这只百岁老大爷了。让我们这种天生幸运E的倒霉孩子情何以堪。近几年看到最好的喜剧片。秒杀昨天...

用户评价

历史部分看似胡扯，其实蛮有意思。现实部分，简直人间喜剧。

想知道中文版第11章怎么译的，真是译JQ么？不过貌似重庆谈判的时候，JQ真的也去了呢。。。

Humorous, absurd and entertaining. The author's knowledge of modern world history is also quite impressive. Yet it does get rather repetitive from the second half.

闺蜜寄给我的书，挺好看的，顺便还能回顾世界历史大事件。正文一共387页，开本不大所以看起来挺快的，把原文翻译成英语的译者水平还蛮到位的，用的都是很简单通俗的词汇，但故事读起来还是挺神龙活虎的。杀时间利器，值得推荐，主人公这老头很幽默很喜感啊，大概就是中文里说的那种不作死就不会死的老活宝2333

Awesome！！！！
