The amusing, heart-breaking book by the writer of the international best seller A Man Called Ove. Granny has been showing fairy tales for as long as Elsa can keep in mind. Initially they were and then make Elsa fall asleep, to get her to practise Granny's secret language, and a little because Granny is just about as nutty as a granny should be. But recently the testimonies have another aspect as well. Something Elsa can't quite put her finger on.... Elsa is seven years old and different. Her grandmother is 77 years of age and crazy. Standing-on-the-balcony-firing-paintball-guns-at-men-who-want-to-talk-about-Jesus crazy. She is also Elsa's best and only friend. At night Elsa runs to her grandmother's testimonies, to the Land of Almost-Awake and the Kingdom of Miamas. There every person is different, and nobody needs to be normal. So when Elsa's grandmother dies and leaves behind some letters apologizing to the people she has injured, it marks the beginning of Elsa's greatest trip. Her grandmother's words lead her to an apartment building filled with drunks, monsters, strike dogs, and totally normal old crones - but also to the reality about fairy tales and kingdoms and a grandmother like no other. My Grandmother Sends Her Respect and Apologises is advised with the same comic accuracy and reliability and beating heart as Fredrik Backman's best-selling debut book, A Man Called Ove. It really is a story about life and death and one of the main human rights: the right to be different.
