Fredrik Backman - Egymás ellen - soft kötés

There is a city in the thick of the forest, far away from everything. It is inhabited by warm and hardworking people who know that life is neither easy nor fair. But no matter how hard times are, there is one thing that pours soul into them and makes them forget everything else: hockey.
We are in the months following the tragic events of last season. The two friends, Maya and Ana, spend the summer on a secluded island, trying to shut out the outside world, but nothing turns out as they hope. The rivalry between Björnstad and neighboring Hed turns into a mad struggle for money, power and survival, culminating in a match between the two hockey teams against each other. A young player's most feared secret is revealed, and the city is once again forced to make a choice. It will be said that violence visited Björnstad this year, although this is a lie. The violence was here a long time ago.

The novel is the second volume of the Björnstad trilogy. In it, we can see again all those whose lives we have already been able to look into with the help of Backman's superb insight and compassionate soul. A captivating book about loyalty, friendship and love that defies everything.
