The captivating and moving follow-up to the international bestseller Beartown, from the 18 million copy bestselling author of Anxious People and A Man Called Ove
Can a broken town survive a second tragedy?
By the time the last goal is scored, someone in Beartown will be dead . . .
Us Against You is the story of two towns, two teams and what it means to believe in something bigger than yourself. It's about how people come together - sometimes in anger, often in sorrow, but also through love.
And how, when we stand together, we can bring a town back to life.
Review
Praise for Beartown and Fredrik Backman ― :
I utterly believed in the residents of Beartown, and felt ripped apart by the events in the book -- Jojo Moyes ― bestselling author of Me Before You
Surrounded by impenetrable forests, it recreates the stifling atmosphere of a dying community. This is a mature, compassionate novel ― The Sunday Times
As popular Swedish exports go, Backman is up there with ABBA and Stieg Larsson. ― The New York Times Book Review
Friday Night Lights for Swedes ― O Magazine
A kind of problem play that moves extremely skilfully near the melodramatic without derailing. Its originality is substantial and the book credibly conveys the dual faces of everyday life. An impressive novel, like no other ― BTJ, Sweden

Backman can tickle the funny bone and tug on the heart strings when he needs to, and is a clever enough storyteller to not overindulge in either
