I think one of the more interesting descriptions in the story is his interactions with women when he is a woman, as they are often supportive and describes him as beautiful. One of them is his aunt who also goes against the clothing norm, as she dressed in men's hunters garb. #booksky #swedishlit

This was a fun read. “The 100-Year-Old Man Who Climbed Out the Window and Disappeared.” If you liked the movie “Forrest Gump” and how the mild-mannered Gump innocently turned up at pivotal moments in world history, then you’ll like this book. #swedishlit #sweden #jonasjonasson #100yearoldman

Lasse-Maja Molin's biography was a bestseller in Sweden in the 1800s and still gets reprinted to this day, in it he tells about his thievery and living his life as a woman and a man. His story is fun and interesting and worth a read. #booksky #swedishlit
