The first film is titled ' Män som hatar kvinnor' (2009). There are three Swedish film versions of the books, starring Noomi Rapace as Lisbeth Salander and the beloved Swedish actor Michael Nyqvist in the role of Mikael Blomqvist. He also tried to get published in English with not much luck until finally, a small London publisher, Christopher MacLehose, took the risk. His manuscripts were refused by two Swedish publishers before Norstedts took a chance on him. Larsson had a tough time getting published. If you don’t have time for a drink at restaurant Kvarnen or a coffee at Mellqvist on the tour, they are such local favourites, we say go back later and hang out. You start the 2-hour tour on the island of Södermalm, at Bellmansgatan 1, the home of the main character, Mikael Blomqvist and you walk your way through key locations in the books bars, cafés, and of course, past Lisbeth Salander’s apartment.Īlso, Stockholm City Museum sells maps in their gift shop for self-guided tours. The Millennium Books Tour is a walking tour based on the trilogy of books The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, The Girl Who Played with Fire, and The Girl Who Kicked the Hornets’ Nest. The trilogy (read by more than 60 million last time we checked) has inspired controversy, family feuds, Hollywood movies, and has shown the world the dark side of calm and peaceful Sweden.
