The story line of The Accidental further adventure of 100
years old man starts right from where the story of the 100 years old man who climbed
out of the window and disappeared ended. The characters are same and so is
their mischief and bad luck. Apart from the existing characters this storyline
proceeds with some present political magnets of the world. #jonasjonasson has
witfully conceived this book. This book as its predecessor is through funny and
a great piece of satire. Allan travels across the globe and hasn’t lost the
spark. He is brutal and still hates the politicians. This book is pretty
relevant in current political situation and morons in power resulting in
political imbalance and rift (PRE COVID-19 era). Jonas jonasson doesn’t mince
his words he is brutal with punctuations.
Allan is in Indonesia and is running out of money acquired
from previous adventure. He is gearing up to celebrate his 101st birthday
and is gifted with an iPad (he is obsessed). Allan decides to take hot air balloon
ride for his birthday adventure and the tragedy strikes. The balloon lifts
without the operator and Allan and his accomplice are free flying on the mercy
of wind. Hours later they drop in ocean without gas. They are rescued by a north
Korean ship carrying enriched uranium assuming them be to be a US spies. Allan sneaks
his way out of North Korea to US to Germany and to Sweden meeting every
prominent leader. His encounter with each one of them is utterly hilarious. Later
Allan travels to Africa and yet again he finds himself in middle of a global
crisis which only he can avert. This genre of comedy is highly recommended as
it makes you laugh hard without actually hurting anyone’s Sentiments.
Kudos to Swedish writers and Swedish comedy, more power to
you guys.
