Suspense
Now almost exclusively known as the author of the
bestselling Millennium Trilogy, Stieg Larsson was first and
foremost a professional journalist and an untiring crusader
for democracy and equality. These articles explore the human
rights issues closest to his heart, issues that formed the
ideological foundation of his explosive trio of novels. As a reporter for and editor-in-chief of the journal Expo,
Larsson researched the extreme right both in Sweden and
internationally. Collected here for the first time are his
most penetrating essays and articles on such topics as the
spread of racist and anti-democratic extremism in Europe;
violence against women and its effect on women’s rights;
homophobia; and honor killings. Also included is his
wonderfully compelling account, written for Vagabond
magazine, of his travels aboard the Trans-Siberian Express,
which he rode from Moscow to Beijing.
