And Every Morning the Way Home Gets Longer and Longer

By Fredrik Backman
And Every Morning the Way Home Gets Longer and Longer by Fredrik Backman digital book - Fable

Publisher Description

A little book with a big heart—from the #1 New York Times bestselling author of A Man Called Ove and Anxious People.

“I read this beautifully imagined and moving novella in one sitting, utterly wowed, wanting to share it with everyone I know.” —Lisa Genova, bestselling author of Still Alice

From the New York Times bestselling author of A Man Called Ove, My Grandmother Asked Me to Tell You She’s Sorry, Britt-Marie Was Here, and Anxious People comes an exquisitely moving portrait of an elderly man’s struggle to hold on to his most precious memories, and his family’s efforts to care for him even as they must find a way to let go.

With all the same charm of his bestselling full-length novels, here Fredrik Backman once again reveals his unrivaled understanding of human nature and deep compassion for people in difficult circumstances. This is a tiny gem with a message you’ll treasure for a lifetime.

And Every Morning the Way Home Gets Longer and Longer Reviews

4.0
“I was actually confused about a thing, but I definitely felt THAT sadness. 🙂 Might re-read this soon too!”
“What an incredibly beautiful bite-sized story. I didn’t know it was possible to feel so much in such a short amount of time. “Once your goodbye is perfect, you have to leave me and not look back.””
