Summary of Anxious People - A Comprehensive Summary



It is quite hard and stressful to be a human being… Making sure that you seem to be normal and you know what you are doing.

A 39-year-old woman planned to rob a bank, but it did not go well. Trying to escape she ran into the first house, up the stairs, into a flat, which was for sale. There were eight people inside, so the robbery became a hostage drama. Later all the people were released but by the time the police arrived at the flat, it was empty, and the robber had disappeared.

Ten years ago a man was standing on a bridge, planning to end his life. But since this man will not be the protagonist of the story, you do not have to remember or even think of him. Is this possible? Because at the moment you read something you instantly think of that thing.

The police officer tries to find out some information about the incident, so he asks the real estate agent. But as it turns out, the Realtor prefers to talk about the advantages of the apartment. She mentions its great location, the amount of sunshine that it gets. But the truth is that the perpetrator could be still in the apartment, so they have to find out if there are any hiding places in it.

During the questioning, the police officer remembers his parents’ idea about his career choice. They believed that those boys who decided to be a policeman only chose this path because they did not have any better idea.
