Eva Gabrielsson and Stieg Larsson shared everything, starting when they were both eighteen until his untimely death thirty-two years later at the age of fifty. In “There Are Things I Want You to Know” about Stieg Larsson and Me, Eva Gabrielsson accepts the daunting challenge of telling the story of their shared life steeped in love and sharpened in the struggle for justice and human rights. She chooses to tell it in short, spare, lyrical chapters, like snapshots, regaling Larssons readers with the inside account of how he wrote, why he wrote, who the sources were for Lisbeth and his other charactersgraciously answering Stieg Larssons readers most pressing questionsand at the same time telling us the things we didnt know we wanted to knowabout love and loss, death, betrayal, and the mistreatment of women.
