The 100-Year-Old Man Who Climbed Out the Window and Disappeared Overview

The 100-Year-Old Man Who Climbed Out the Window and Disappeared is a novel by Swedish author Jonas Jonasson. The narrative relates the story of Allan Karlsson, a Swedish man who walks away one day from his old folks' home shortly before his 100-year-old birthday. Allan impulsively steals a cash-filled suitcase worth millions from a mobster and is pursued by the criminal gang as well as police authorities across Sweden. Along the way, Allan's incredible lifelong knack for getting involved in world-changing adventures with such historic figures as Harry Truman, Mao Tse-tung, Joseph Stalin, Francisco Franco, and many, many others is chronicled. Throughout it all, Allan maintains a stoic, low-key acceptance of the many successes and tragedies that benefit and befall him, refusing to allow life's endless ups and downs break him or diminish his positive attitude.
