      <![CDATA[Great article -- although I firmly disagree with you about one thing. I have read almost nothing but Scandinavian crime fiction for the last year or so, and I could barely make it through Stieg Larsson's books.

      <![CDATA[Another Swedish writer of note is Inger Frimansson who has twice won the Best Swedish Crime Novel, once in 1998 for Goodnight My Darling and again in 2005 for its sequel Shadow in the Water. Frimansson's novels are notable for being psychologically intense rather than plot driven.

      <![CDATA[Agreed with this perceptive article and with Mark Asch. As you write in your article, there are other Sandinavian authors examining society within a crime-fiction framework in this way: Asa Larsson, Karin Alvtegen, Kjell Erickson, Ake Edwardsen et al (Sweden), Karin Fossum (Norway) and Lief Davisen (Denmark) as well as those you cite and others.

      <![CDATA[You know, it occurs to me, finally, that Rich might at least be right about the appeal of the books. Most of the people buying these books -- like many, many fans of location specific crime fiction -- are essentially armchair tourists.
