Anxious People - Fredrik Backman
336 pages
“This whole thing is a complicated, unlikely story. Perhaps that’s because what we think stories are about, often isn’t what they’re about at all. This, for instance, might not be the story of a bank robbery, or an apartment viewing, or a hostage drama. Perhaps this isn’t even a story about idiots. Perhaps this is a story about a bridge.”
At first glance, this is a silly story about idiots. However, as you dive into Anxious People, you will soon see it is much more than that. A heartwarming tale of how people - strangers and friends, impact each other.
Following the theme of my chosen quote, this wine will be different than what you first perceive. The Chateau Ksara Reserve du Couvent starts with blackberry and cherry on the nose, but on the palate hints of leather, cigar, and black pepper. This glass of deep garnet color is a delightful blend of Syrah, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Cabernet Franc. Pairs will with lamb.
