Rezension zu „Stieg Larsson, My Friend “
'[A] short but powerful memoir. For Larsson geeks such as myself, the unearthed details of his past and the fond recollections of his ceaseless pursuit of justice are gripping' Rosie Swash, Observer. 'Baksi writes knowledgably about Larsson's work as a passionate campaigner against racism. It is an intellectual and unsentimental portrait' Joy lo Dico, Independent on Sunday. 'In Baksi's book we recognise the deep wellsprings of Larsson's work' Iain Finlayson, The Times.
