The 100-Year-Old Man Who Climbed Out the Window and Disappeared is the perfect book when you are searching for something light and humorous to read after reading heavier fare. It is also one of those books which you have to be in the right frame of mind to read it.

This book, has sat on my shelf for sometime before I decided to pick it up and tackle it. I agree with Allan Karlsson, the 100-year-old man, that it is a wise thing to depart a nursing home in which a tyrant is the director. After his departure, Allan, makes his choices randomly in much the same way he has done all of his life. It is only fitting that if a man reaches the esteemed age of 100 that we should revisit his life, as we did in this novel.

Even though, I wasn't in quite the right mood for this book, I did enjoy it and feel confident in recommending it.
