Zaplen starostka, kter mla fitrna (2026)

The author of The Hundred-Year-Old Man Who Climbed Out of the Window and Disappeared returns with another typically playful story. People all over the world sleep in the most comfortable beds made by Traumbett of Hamburg, or almost all over the world: the German manufacturer has so far failed to establish itself in Scandinavia. The companys new head, Konrad Kaltenbacher Jr, decides to change that. His plans are disrupted, far from quietly, by the energetic mayor of the Swedish town of Halstaholm. Julie knows that eight hundred jobs can turn a sleepy backwater into the centre of the world, and when she sets her mind on something, things begin to happen. This brisk and witty novel explores stubbornness, friendship and the idea that, with a little cheek, almost anything is possible.
