We are thrilled to announce Fredrik Backman is coming to Hay Festival for the first time. His books have sold over 20 million copies in 40 countries. His debut novel, A Man Called Ove, spent over a year on the New York Times best-seller list. Since then he’s thrilled fans with titles including Bear Town, Anxious People and his latest novel My Friends. He talks to journalist and writer, Poorna Bell, about how he manages to combine the wickedly funny with the deeply moving, creating characters we all wish were our own best friends.
