In a small Swedish town, seven very different strangers find themselves trapped together, trying to make sense of what is happening while the would-be robber refuses to make any demands. As the hours drag on, fear gives way to frustration, unexpected honesty and the awkward intimacy that comes from being forced to share space with people you would normally avoid. With Backman’s knack for finding humour in everyday life, the story looks at anxiety, loneliness and the messy ways people cope, while slowly revealing that the person causing the chaos may be the one most in need of help.
