   Now an HBO Original Series “You’ll love this engrossing novel.” —People Named a Best Book of the Year by LibraryReads, BookBrowse, and Goodreads From the #1 New York Times bestselling author of Anxious People, a dazzling and profound novel about a small town with a big dream—and the price required to make it come true. By the lake in Beartown is an old ice rink, and in that ice rink Kevin, Amat, Benji, and the rest of the town’s junior ice hockey team are about to compete in the national semi-finals—and they actually have a shot at winning. All the hopes and dreams of this place now rest on the shoulders of a handful of teenage boys. Under that heavy burden, the match becomes the catalyst for a violent act that will leave a young girl traumatized and a town in turmoil. Accusations are made and, like ripples on a pond, they travel through all of Beartown. This is a story about a town and a game, but even more about loyalty, commitment, and the responsibilities of friendship; the people we disappoint even though we love them; and the decisions we make every day that come to define us. In this story of a small forest town, Fredrik Backman has found the entire world.

   Us Against Youtells the story of the months after the terrible events that shook Beartown last spring. Best friends Maya and Ana spend the summer on a hidden island, trying to leave the world behind, but nothing goes as they hope. Beartown and neighbouring Hed's rivalry grows into a furious struggle for money, power, and survival that explodes as their hockey teams meet. When a player's most closely guarded secret is revealed, a whole community is forced to show what it really wants to stand for. They will say that violence came to Beartown that year, but it will be a lie. The violence was already there. Fredrik Backman's Us Against Them, the stand alone sequel to Beartown, is a powerful depiction of the poignant and striking relationships of a small town. It's a story about loyalty, friendship, and a love that challenges everything.

   Mistrzowsko opowiedziana historia, która ujmuje uczciwością i szczerością Na podstawie pierwszej opowieści o mieszkańcach Bjrnstad powstał serial HBO Miasto niedźwiedzia Widzieliście kiedyś upadające miasto? Nasze właśnie upadło. Będziemy utrzymywać, że przemoc zagościła w Bjrnstad dopiero tego lata, ale to nieprawda. Przemoc już tam była. Czasem tak łatwo sprawić, aby ludzie się znienawidzili, że wydaje się wręcz niemożliwe, by kiedykolwiek miało się to zmienić. fragment książki Po przerażających wydarzeniach, które wstrząsnęły Bjrnstad, a zostały opisane w Mieście niedźwiedzia, My przeciwko wam przybliża historię kolejnych miesięcy w tym miasteczku. Fredrik Backman raz jeszcze stworzył pełnowymiarową, obfitującą w najróżniejsze emocje opowieść, niedającą się zamknąć w jednej kategorii, o lojalności, przyjaźni i miłości, która wystawia nas na próbę. We wszystkich powieściach Backmana widoczna jest jego umiejętność przekazywania prawdy o ludziach z niesłychaną elegancją. Kirkus Reviews Wnikliwy i całościowy obraz świata sportu: podziałów klasowych, męskości, tożsamości i brutalnych zachowań, na które może pozwolić sobie gwiazdor hokeja, wiedząc, że ujdą mu na sucho.
