ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK

“The 100-Year-Old Man Who Climbed Out the Window and Disappeared” by Jonas Jonasson follows Allan Karlsson, a centenarian who escapes his birthday party at a nursing home, embarking on a wild and unexpected adventure. Allan, with no particular destination in mind, accidentally steals a suitcase full of money, which leads him into the path of criminals, police, and journalists. The novel blends dark humor with absurdity, exploring themes of fate, the randomness of life, and the absurdity of politics and history. Through Allan's quirky experiences, Jonasson critiques human nature, power, and the unpredictability of events.
