Many, many people have seen and loved Lukas Moodysson’s wonderful 2013 film, We Are the Best! , but I would venture to guess that few of these fans are aware that the filmmaker adapted his movie from a graphic novel written by his wife, Coco Moodysson. For those of you who have seen the film, the stories and characters of Never Goodnight will be instantly recognizable. The rest of you get the chance to meet Coco, Klara, and Matilda for the first time in English. Here, from the book, are four scenes to get you started.
