STIEG LARSSON IN THE NEW YORK TIMES

A very interesting piece by Charles McGrath, formerly editor of the New Times Book Review, in today's paper (you will find it here) about Stieg Larsson and the fight between his partner and his family over the estate. What jumps out is that McGrath says a substantial portion of a fourth novel exists on a disc in Larsson's computer. But at a panel discussion in London, his publisher implied that there were only notes and a outline, and very little actual text. There's also more discussion about the shortcomings of the first translation...

the family dispute is quite sad really.
