My first impression was that this would be similar to A Man called Ove. It is not. The Grump is a nameless man whose wife suffers from dementia and is in a home. He goes to see her and give her dinner and coffee most days and the rest of the time he is preparing for his end. He is building his own coffin as he is a skilled woodworker and has made a beautiful grave marker for the grave. His world view is that modern items are not better and are not made to last. He has a low opinion of most things.
He wants to write his will in ink not on a computer.
Things change when he has a fall and bangs his head. He is forced to accept that changes happen and they are not always bad, sometimes they are wonderful.
