Εννοείται πως θα έπαιρνα οτιδήποτε με την υπογραφή του Λάρσον από κάτω. Πολύ περισσότερο μάλιστα όταν αυτό το οτιδήποτε είναι βιβλίο του με την ιδιότητα του δημοσιογράφου, σκέψεις γύρω από όλα τα θέματα που απασχολούν τον κόσμο σήμερα, την ξενοφοβία, το ρατσισμό, την ομοφοβία, το λαϊκισμό, σε μια συλλογή από άρθρα και κείμενα που έγραψε κυρίως κατά την πρώτη του δεκαετία στο περιοδικό EXPO. Έχει χρονογραφήματα, άρθρα, ρεπορτάζ και αλληλογραφία με αναγνώστες, ένα βιβλίο οδηγός όπως το χαρακτηρίζο...
I knew there was a reason I liked Stieg Larrson so much. It was much more than the creation of the greatest female heroine of all time (Lisbeth Salander), but rather his own experiences with injustices perpetuated in the world, most notably in this collection of articles on the rise and foul dissemination of the far right Neo-Nazi movement that has plagued our society for so long.
A great collection of Stieg Larsson's articles at Expo over the years. He truly was a crusading journalist, always fighting for equality, for all minorities, especially against neo-nazis, and white supremacist parties in Sweden. In short, he was the real Mikael Blomkvist.
Ενδιαφέρον, ιδιαίτερα με τις σύγχρονες εξελίξεις στην ακροδεξιά στην ελλάδα και γενικά στην ευρώπη. Όντως προφητικός. Το πρώτο μισό του βιβλίου ασχολείται με το ακροδεξιό κόμμα στην Σουηδία, και το δεύτερο μισό με τη βία κατά των ομοφυλόφιλων και των γυναικών. Τα επιχειρήματα του Λάρσον είναι ορισμένες φορές αφοπλιστικά. Έχει έναν σύνθετο, και μερικές φορές δύσκολο να τον ακολουθήσεις ειρμό, μια που οι πληροφορίες που παραθέτει και τα ονόματα είναι ορισμένες φορές δαιδαλώδη. Εντούτοις δε λείπει
Sweden of the 80s and the 90s...the world of the 10s .....a must read
Me di cuenta de lo poco que sé de política europea y recomiendo mucho este libro. Para mí arroja muchas luces de cómo actúa la ultra derecha y que incluso puede llegar a resultar bastantes predecibles las artimañas que utilizan para manipular a la gente. Creo que es importante resaltar que es una compilación de artículos que fueron publicados en la revista Expo e inevitablemente a muchos les resultará repetitivo varias cosas, pero es por la misma naturaleza de los textos (no fueron pensados como...
comparative:p122:It is of course impossible to compare the violent treatment of women and suggest that one murder is more cruel than another.typo:p123: In such cases, men's violence toward's women must be regarded as something that is annoying, to be sure, but nevertheless a socially acceptable pattern of behavior--we can't interfere in what is happening in people's private lives, and if she doesn't enjoy being beaten up then shecan always move out.Well written, but depressing as hell.
Given the current political climate in the world and more specifically in my country, Colombia, Stieg Larsson hits close to home in many statements about fascism and women's rights. Yes, his investigations are specific to swedish politics, but are completely relatable, given that fascism works the same ways in Stockholm as it does anywhere else.
I wanted to love this but found a lot of the articles heavy & hard to concentrate on. Possibly because the concept of Swedish politics is new to me. Easy to see how the writing style has developed & especially topics that came up within the Girl With The Dragon Tattoo series.
An inspiring book with some exciting twists.
No me gustó lo abandoné en la mitad cuando descubrí que con tres artículos sobre el mismo tema era suficiente. Eso dsí, aseguro que lo que está pasando con Trump era un a "tragedia anunciada".
2.5 Super interesante pero bastante repetitivo
A fascinating read, Stieg Larsson was a great man and reading his non fiction stories gives some interesting insight into his journalism.
This collection of articles from the author of the Millennium trilogy spans different decades of his work and touches on many of the same themes found in his fictional trilogy. While some stories are more compelling than others, overall I actually enjoyed reading these nonfiction articles more than his fiction. Although it wasn't a book that made me want to stop everything to finish reading it, I did find his point of view interesting and still relevant decades after the original publication of
A bit dated, but a nice insight into Swedish politics and a really great excerpt from "The Debate on Honor Killings." Larsson rightly points out the hypocrisy in far right outrage over the killing of an immigrant woman in Sweden by her father and says every year Swedish men abuse and kill Swedish women. But when Swedish men kill Swedish women, they are not subjected to "cultural-anthropological scrutiny." He said that "instead of focusing on men's need to control situations, the violent treatmen...
OK. I understand Larsson was an ardent crusader against the right wing. I'm with you, dude. But ten consecutive essays tilting against the same windmills? OK, they are inded Neo Nazis, to be sure really repugnants, but one or two exemplary essays would do just dandy. But his chronology of the development of this disturbing political subset in Europe is eerily parallel to the rise of the USA's Tea Party. Their world view scares me to death.Larsson hits his stride when he hits the topics of women'...
Stieg Larsson, creador de la trilogía millenium, fue un periodista reconocido por la franqueza e imparcialidad con que abordaba un hecho y daba su punto de vista sobre el mismo; su lucha por la desigualdad y la discriminación hacia la mujer lo hizo resaltar entre el gremio. Muchos de sus artículos los firmó bajo el pseudónimo de "Severin".La voz y la furia es una compilación de varios de sus artículos dónde Larsson hace una crítica contra el movimiento antisemita y grupos nacionales ultraderechi...
Excellent book which reveals the intricacies of Stieg Larsson's mind and creativity. I thoroughly enjoyed reading the real-life crimes and the analysis (or otherwise harsh critique) of far-right ideology and propaganda. Stieg does us proud and approaches such violence and murders from clear disappointment in mankind in their logical errors or dangerous prejudicial weakness.
