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.

Momentos antes de que empiece la pomposa celebración de su centésimocumplea?os, Allan Karlsson decide que nada de eso va con él. Vestidocon su mejor traje y unas pantuflas, se encarama a una ventana y sefuga de la residencia donde vive, dejando plantados al alcalde y a laprensa local. Sin saber adónde ir, se encamina a la estación deautobuses, el único sitio donde es posible pasar desapercibido. Allí,mientras espera la llegada del primer autocar que se presente, unjoven le pide que vigile su maleta, con la mala fortuna de que el busllega antes de que el joven regrese y Allan, sin pensarlo dos veces,se sube con la maleta, ignorante de que en su interior se apilan,santo cielo!, millones de coronas en efectivo. Pero Allan no es unapersona fácil de amilanar. A lo largo de su centenaria vida ha tenidoun montón de experiencias de lo más singulares: desde inverosímilesencuentros con personajes como Franco, Stalin y Churchill, hastaamistades comprometedoras como la esposa de Mao, pasando poractividades de alto riesgo como ser agente de la CIA o ayudar aOppenheimer a crear la bomba atómica. Sin embargo, esta vez, en suenésima aventura, cuando creía que con su jubilación había llegado latranquilidad, está a punto de poner todo el país patas arriba.Jonas Jonasson ha urdido una historia extremadamente audaz eingeniosa, capaz de sorprender constantemente al lector, pero elverdadero regalo es su personaje protagonista, Allan Karlsson, unanciano de un maravilloso sentido común, un abuelo sin prejuicios queno está dispuesto a renunciar al placer de vivir.

100-Year-Old Man Who Climbed Out the Window and Disappeared TURNAROUND PUBLISHER SERVICES
Książki / Literatura obcojęzyczna
The international publishing sensation--over six million copies sold worldwide!§A reluctant centenarian much like Forrest Gump (if Gump were an explosives expert with a fondness for vodka) decides it's not too late to start over . . .§After a long and eventful life, Allan Karlsson ends up in a nursing home, believing it to be his last stop. The only problem is that he's still in good health, and in one day, he turns 100. A big celebration is in the works, but Allan really isn't interested (and he'd like a bit more control over his vodka consumption). So he decides to escape. He climbs out the window in his slippers and embarks on a hilarious and entirely unexpected journey, involving, among other surprises, a suitcase stuffed with cash, some unpleasant criminals, a friendly hot-dog stand operator, and an elephant (not to mention a death by elephant).§It would be the adventure of a lifetime for anyone else, but Allan has a larger-than-life backstory: Not only has he witnessed some of the most important events of the twentieth century, but he has actually played a key role in them. Starting out in munitions as a boy, he somehow finds himself involved in many of the key explosions of the twentieth century and travels the world, sharing meals and more with everyone from Stalin, Churchill, and Truman to Mao, Franco, and de Gaulle. Quirky and utterly unique, The 100-Year-Old Man Who Climbed Out the Window and Disappeared has charmed readers across the world.

In the summer of 2000, Jane Steare received the phone call every mother dreads. Her daughter Lucie Blackman - tall, blonde, and twenty-one years old - had stepped into the vastness of a Tokyo summer and disappeared forever. That winter, her dismembered remains were found buried in a desolate seaside cave. Her disappearance was mystifying. Had Lucie been abducted by a religious cult? Who was the mysterious man she had gone to meet? What did her work, as a 'hostess' in the notorious Roppongi district of Tokyo, really involve? And could Lucie's fate be linked to the disappearance of another girl some ten years earlier? Over the course of a decade, Richard Lloyd Parry has travelled to four continents to interview those caught up in the story and been given unprecedented access to Lucie's bitterly divided family to reveal the astonishing truth about Lucie and her fate.
