INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER - WINNER OF THE SWEDISH BOOK OF THE YEAR AWARD - A profoundly moving debut novel that follows an elderly man's attempts to mend his relationship with his son before it's too late: an emotional story of love, friendship, fatherhood, dogs, and atonement that is already an international sensation.

"One of those 'you'll laugh, you'll cry, you'll want to buy twenty copies and give them to everyone you love' books." --Fredrik Backman, bestselling author of A Man Called Ove, in The New Yorker

"A powerful, sneakily emotional meditation on life and death, and the foundational relationships in our lives. This is a book that will echo in your soul." --Garth Stein, New York Times bestselling author of The Art of Racing in the Rain

Bo is running out of time. Yet time is one of the few things he's got left. These days, his quiet existence is broken up only by daily visits from his home care team. Fortunately, he still has his beloved elkhound Sixten to keep him company ... though now his son, with whom Bo has had a rocky relationship, insists upon taking the dog away, claiming that Bo has grown too old to properly care for him. The threat of losing Sixten stirs up a whirlwind of emotion, leading Bo to take stock of his life, his relationships, and the imperfect way he's expressed his love over the years.
