Jonas Jonasson was born in Sweden in 1962. He has a professional background as a journalist and media consultant. The Hundred-Year-Old Man Who Climbed Out of the Window and Disappeared is his first novel which Jonasson describes as 'an intelligent, very stupid book'. He is currently working on his second.
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.

評分電影英文版在英國剛公映。不過整場隻有我一個人實在好寂寞。雖然一個人抱著爆米花還是笑的好開心。豆瓣電影居然還沒有這部片子。隻能跑到書評這邊來點贊。實在太強大。真是完全敗給這隻百歲老大爺瞭。讓我們這種天生幸運E的倒黴孩子情何以堪。近幾年看到最好的喜劇片。秒殺昨天...

圖書標籤: 小說 幽默 瑞典 JonasJonasson 英文原版 外國文學 Humor/Thriller 英文小說
因為看完電影看到評論裏說有很多書裏的內容沒有錶現,趕快找來書幾乎是一口氣讀完瞭。隻能說作者腦洞不是一般的大,而且語言刻意的羅嗦,但是完全不讓人討厭,沒有歐美暢銷小說裏常見的那種自命不凡式的幽默語調,平實中透著犯壞。想看看這個作者其他的小說瞭。
評分第一次讀完英文小說可還行。不許你黑我美齡瞎逼捧江青。挺扯淡的
評分今年唯一看完的上瞭400頁的小說。開頭精彩,瑞典幽默加上英文翻譯那種冷冷的喜感撲麵而來。頭百頁令人驚喜,曆史、懸疑、冒險集一身於這個呆萌老頭身上。中間段落看就感覺有些鬼扯又班門弄斧瞭。不得不說不知道是瑞典人三觀不正還是黑色幽默,有些地方無法細想。裏麵倒是用《聖經》裏麵探討到底有沒有無罪之人的段落給所有角色洗瞭白,總體來說還是一部很優秀的消遣小說。
評分非常有趣的小說,幽默諷刺。
