Klappentext
A madcap new novel from Jonas Jonasson, author of the #1 internationally bestselling The 100-Year-Old Man Who Climbed Out the Window and Disappeared and The Girl Who Saved the King of Sweden
A gangster, a vicar, and a receptionist walk into a bar . . .
Killer-for-hire Anders is fresh out of prison and trying to keep his head down when he meets two unlikely new business partners at a 1-star hotel: one, an atheist former Protestant vicar fired from her church, and the other the hotel's receptionist, the ruined grandson of an ex-millionaire. Together they cook up an idea for an enterprising venture involving Swedish gangsters that is set to make them all a fortune---until, all of a sudden and to everyone's surprise, Anders finds Jesus. The perfect plan---if it weren't for Hitman Anders's curiosity about the meaning of it all. In conversations with the vicar, he turns to Jesus and, against all odds, Jesus answers him! Anders's sudden interest in religion might be good for his soul, but it's not good for business, and the vicar and the receptionist have to find a new plan, quick.
As wildly funny and unexpected as Jonasson's previous bestselling novels, Hitman Anders and the Meaning of It All is a zany, feel-good adventure story, tenderly and hilariously exploring belief, redemption, and the fact that it's never too late to start again.
Biografie
Jonas Jonasson, geb. 1962 im schwedischen Växsjö, arbeitete nach seinem Studium in Göteborg als Journalist unter anderem für die Zeitungen Smålandsposten und Expressen. Später gründete er eine eigene Medien-Consulting-Firma. Doch nach 20 Jahren in der Medienwelt verkaufte er alles und zog in den schweizer Kanton Tessin, wo er sich seither mit Blick auf den Luganersee dem Schreiben widmet.
