Three novels. Bakman F.

The short stories of Fredrick Bakman are imbued with the same soft humor and warmth as his “full-length” Bestseller novels, published today in forty-three countries. These are modern parables on eternal topics or - if you want - a kind of fairy tale for adults. Bakman is faithful to himself - he again speaks in simple words about the most important thing: about the meaning of life, about death, about ruthless time and human memory.

“Life deal” - this is a story about what you are ready to sacrifice for the sake of salvation of someone else's life. When at stake not only your future, but also your past. Not only the places where you strive, but also the traces you already left. For the sake of whom are you ready to abandon all this?

In the short story “And every morning the road home is getting longer” Bakman writes about what it feels like to lose their memory before life, and we, remaining, have it not clear how it is to be incomprehensible how Live in separation from them, when they are still here and not here.

“Sebastian and the troll” - a piercing short story of Bakman, a fairy tale for adults, a small story of a downbreak of emotional power. This is a story about children's fragility and vulnerability, broken laughter, stuffy glass balls and children's fears.
