Win a three-night weekend break for two in Stockholm

Plus five runner-up prizes of a bottle of Karlsson's Gold Vodka

This competition is now closed.

To celebrate having sold one million copies of The Hundred-Year-Old Man Who Climbed Out of the Window and Disappeared, Hesperus Press are offering the chance to win a three-night weekend away for two to Stockholm in conjunction with Norwegian Air and Nordic Hotels. Five runners-up will receive a bottle of Karlsson’s Gold Vodka.

It all starts on the one-hundredth birthday of Allan Karlsson. Sitting quietly in his room in an old people's home, he is waiting for the party he-never-wanted-anyway to begin. The mayor is going to be there. The press is going to be there. But, as it turns out, Allan is not... Slowly but surely Allan climbs out of his bedroom window, into the flowerbed (in his slippers) and makes his getaway. And so begins his picaresque and unlikely journey involving criminals, several murders, a suitcase full of cash, and incompetent police. As his escapades unfold, we learn something of Allan's earlier life in which - remarkably - he helped to make the atom bomb, became friends with American presidents, Russian tyrants, and Chinese leaders, and was a participant behind the scenes in many key events of the twentieth century.
