What kind of helplessness and despair forced a middle-aged man to rob a cashless bank with a toy gun on the morning before the New Year. The robbers who failed in their operation fled in panic into an apartment for sale on the top floor of the building, which was full of potential buyers who were looking at the house. From there, the robbery turned into a hostage-taking case.
However, things developed unexpectedly. There was no confrontation between police and robbers, and no fatal blow. After a long day, the eight hostages were released safe and sound, but the robbers were completely missing. The police interrogated the hostages one by one, only to find that each of them had a lot of complaints and questions, but no one could tell and didn't care where the robbers had gone.
Marriage, work, family, childcare, investment, medical care, interpersonal relationships, everything in today's life can cause anxiety, and no one dares to say that he is not anxious at all. We are all hard-working and fragile little people. While complaining, we are still gritting our teeth and persevering. The novel "The Anxious Man" focuses on ordinary people like you and me.
The author Bachman is really good at writing healing and heart-warming novels. One of the major features of his novels is that they are both funny and tearful. They do not deliberately make people miserable, but they are moved, warmed and poked unconsciously while reading. His works pay great attention to the people at the bottom and disadvantaged groups, and pay attention to the joys, sorrows, sorrows and joys of ordinary people. For example, the irritable but righteous grandmother, the rigid but strong Britt-Marie, and the foul-faced but gentle Ove. These people all have shortcomings and difficulties, which can easily remind us of those around us or even ourselves.
The protagonist of "The Anxious Man" is a stupid bank robber and a group of weird buyers who are looking at houses. I thought the story should be thrilling, but the direction of the plot was completely unexpected. This group of people living together in the same room brings about a farce. Behind the laughter and curses are the pitiful human relationships and modern social problems. Not only that, there is a huge secret waiting for readers to discover in the second half of the story.
In "The Anxious Man", facing the difficult road of life, some people give up, while others are still trying their best. And Bachman's story awakens our empathy and empathy, and love, understanding, forgiveness and hope can save us at any time.
Reader comments
No one cares about a robber holding a bank hostage with a toy gun. Everyone is complaining about the unhappiness of their lives. This is a bit of a headache because the police don't care about the happiness of the people, they just want the city to be safe. But they had to listen to these people talking about trivial things, and they needed some clues. But as more and more useless items become available, the police become anxious. The protagonist, who has been avoiding, is also anxious because of time. The people who could not leave also began to become anxious. No one seems to be too calm during this period. The author is very good at writing, and he will not deliberately make things miserable. He just described the past plainly. When a sour feeling wells up in your heart, you begin to be led along by the plot. The author of this book is obviously very clever.
Anxiety is a common problem of modern people. The pressure of work, the pressure of house and car, and peer pressure have led to a certain degree of helplessness and despair, forcing a middle-aged man to rob a cashless bank with a toy gun on the morning before the New Year. A very popular book, the most impressive thing is "If people were really as happy as they appear online, they wouldn't spend so much damn time on the Internet, because no one would think about taking half a day to take selfies when they are really having a good day. As long as they have enough fertilizer, anyone can create a false glamorous atmosphere in their life." It makes so much sense! Enlightenment.
The strangers were in the same room because they were looking at a house, and when a bank robber accidentally broke in, they started out as rivals with each other's own agendas, and in the end, they became bank robbers by accident and worked together to make plans, escaping the police's arrest. In this closed space, strangers healed each other in a short period of time together, which alleviated the anxiety that everyone initially complained about. After the incident, everyone who participated in this accident had more or less positive changes in their subsequent lives.
Each pair of characters involves their own complete life story, and each story is unique, just like everyone is a unique individual in life.
On a road with no end in sight, some people will sit down along the way, and some people will go back the same way. Everyone's choices are different, and some people's choices are even ridiculous. He holds a cashless bank hostage with a toy gun. He is a mature middle-aged man. Many people are curious, what kind of shocks and impulses cause an adult to become so abnormal? This is the genius of the author. People always like to watch some funny tragedies. I don't care about his life. I just want to know why he would do such a thing. Human empathy is obviously not enough.
This book starts with a ridiculous bank robbery. How much pressure is there to make a man go to the bank with a toy gun on New Year's morning? What on earth did he go through? The robbery ended in failure, but he entered an apartment and took eight hostages. What made us even more puzzled was that the hostages were released safe and sound soon after, but the robber was missing. No one knew where he went or what he went through, and even the hostages couldn't tell. But the seemingly absurd beginning has a warm ending. If you also feel that life has brought you a lot of pressure, then you must read this book, which will bring you great spiritual strength.
"The Anxious Person" A great mother who went to hijack a bank because she had no choice but to take hostages by mistake, and met a group of kind-hearted people who helped her escape~
Everyone in life will have their own anxieties, and there will always be times when we have no choice but to live in this world. At this time, we should be more calm and deal with things rationally. "It's hard to pass every time." We need to understand that the world is not always perfect. When there are shortcomings, face it calmly. Accepting the current predicament is the first step to be able to get out of it. Reborn in adversity, don't envy what others have, and don't underestimate your own situation [KISS]
A desperate man decided to rob a bank when he was desperate. A series of ridiculous stories happened. Among the absurd and funny stories, we saw the hardship and sadness of the lives of the people at the bottom. Robbers used a toy gun to rob a cashless bank. The robbers who failed in their operation fled in a hurry, but did not expect to turn the robbery into a hostage-taking case. However, things developed unexpectedly. There was no confrontation between police and robbers, and no fatal blow. After a long day, the eight hostages were released safe and sound, but the robbers were completely missing.
Are we "idiots"?
Yes and no.
No one wants to admit that they are an idiot, but everyone is willing to accuse others of being an idiot.
Whether it is yes or no, you have to follow your heart!
But are they really idiots?
They are just trying to survive.
I wanted to give up several times because I felt that the narrative style was not my favorite. But the wind was quite loud, so I watched it. Fortunately, I persisted in reading it and saw this heart-warming ending.
Our lives will never be smooth sailing. There are always various problems in marriage, parents, work, and children. We have to take a breath and take care of ourselves occasionally. But it doesn't matter, time and love, scars can always heal a little.
The person around you may look back by chance, or cross thousands of rivers and mountains before finally finding you. Our gears are not always in perfect harmony, but fortunately, you love me and I love you.
The title of this book is somewhat misleading. I originally wanted to read a psychological book full of useful information about anxiety to relieve my current anxiety, but I accidentally read this suspenseful and heart-warming story-style novel. Although it was not in line with my original intention, the story was very heart-warming. The author's writing style is wonderful in describing the scenery and space.
Everyone lives in anxiety, sometimes it's good to stop and see the outside world.
You never know who is passing by you, and you don't know what impact it will have, but please keep your kindness and kindness.
Finally, I rubbed my eyes and had a good sleep.
Good night stranger

This book is like a key that opens the door to anxiety deep in people's hearts. Although the characters in the book have their own flaws, they are all very real and their stories made me relate to them. As the book says: "Some people give up, and some people are still trying their best." We are all anxious people, but love, understanding, forgiveness and hope can make us face life better. This book made me laugh and cry, and also made me cherish the people around me and the beauty in life more.
The further I read the more I became immersed in it, especially when I thought the real estate agent was the criminal and she showed up in the closet vent. My curiosity reached its peak. At that time, I no longer cared about whether they were anxious or not, I just wanted to know how to get out. When I knew the ending, I suddenly realized why everyone made such a choice. Very profound and moving.
The writing style is humorous and the plot is interlocking. It is a very healing and heart-warming book.
A very warm story
I don't know if it's humor or anxiety. Maybe I'm anxious on the inside but still funny on the outside!
Love this book, it's like a romantic suspense drama
The author is very humorous and the writing is very good and delicate.
Go and see it, you will know how profound it is.
All will be redeemed in the end. He, she in the book, and you reading the book. "If the world were to end tomorrow, plant a small apple tree today."
Very good story
You can read it if you have the patience
Life is full of anxiety, but anxiety can be cured
The one who untie the bell or the one who ties the bell
There are many sentences about life philosophy. The content in the book is very rich and interesting.
There is no obstacle that you can't overcome, just do what you can and let nature take its course.
It is a fascinating, seemingly absurd story that reveals the helplessness of life, and anxiety eventually consumes oneself...
This is a heart-warming story. Is the world miserable and hopeless? No, you meet the most enthusiastic people when you are most helpless, so this world is worth cherishing...
Make people laugh, make people cry, and heal people's hearts
It is a really great book that can be read in one sitting.
Come and try reading it!
