The Tattooed Girl: The Enigma of Stieg Larsson and the Secrets Behind the Most Compelling Thrillers of Our Time
The fascinating stories behind what have been rightly called the "hottest books on the planet": "The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, The Girl Who Played with Fire, "and "The Girl Who Kicked the Hornet's Nest" Through insightful commentary and revealing interviews, you will enter the unique world of Lisbeth Salander, Mikael Blomkvist-and of Stieg Larsson himself-discovering the fascinating real-life experiences and incidents involving Swedish politics, violence against women, and neo-Nazis that are at the heart of Larsson's work
John-Henri Holmberg, a Swedish author and close friend of Larsson for more than three decades, provides a unique insider's look into the secrets of the author's imaginative universe, his life, and his ideas for future books-including the mysterious "fourth book" in the series, which Larsson had started but not finished at the time of his death
Included within are answers to compelling questions on every Larsson fan's mind: - What makes the Lisbeth Salander character so unique and memorable? Why have so many people from all backgrounds and with all kinds of tastes found "The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo" so riveting? What are the speculations-and what is the truth-about Stieg Larsson's tragic death at age fifty, just before the publication of his novels, and the bitter battle over his legacy? What changes were made in the plots and translations of the novels after Larsson's death-and why? How did Larsson's early interest in science fiction and American and British crime writers feed into his creation of the Millennium trilogy? - What were Larsson's ideas for the fourth book, and are there any clues to the plots he imagined for his ten-book series? Will we meet Lisbeth's twin sister, Camilla, or any of her other seven siblings that Zalachenko tells her she has? - Does Lisbeth Salander give feminism a new definition? - What will happen in the contentious battle between Stieg Larsson's life partner, Eva Gabrielsson, and his father and

A Girl Named Faithful Plum: The True Story of a Dancer from China and How She Achieved Her Dream
In 1977, when Zhongmei Lei was eleven years old, she learned that the prestigious Beijing Dance Academy was having open auditions
She'd already taken dance lessons, but everyone said a poor country girl would never get into the academy, especially without any connections in the Communist Party of the 1970s
But Zhongmei, whose name means Faithful Plum, persisted, even going on a hunger strike, until her parents agreed to allow her to go
She traveled for three days and two nights to get to Beijing and eventually beat out 60,000 other girls for one of 12 coveted spots
But getting in was easy compared to staying in, as Zhongmei soon learned
Without those all-important connections she was just a little girl on her own, far away from family
But her determination, talent, and sheer force of will were not something the teachers or other students expected, and soon it was apparent that Zhongmei was not to be underestimated
Zhongmei became a famous dancer, and founded her own dance company, which made its New York debut when she was in just her late 20s
In "A Girl Named Faithful Plum," her husband and renowned journalist, Richard Bernstein, has written a fascinating account of one girl's struggle to go from the remote farmlands of China to the world's stages, and the lengths she went to in order to follow her dream.
