Att svensk media inte är något att ha visas av att de verkar ligga efter i
Stieg Larsson-arkeologin. Aftonbladet skrev nyligen (se t ex min notis om
saken) om noveller funna i "fanzinetidningar", ursprungligen från SAAM. Jag
påpekade då att det fanns material från restarkiv till Bertil Falks JVM (som
jag kånkade över till KB). Utländsk media har tydligen kommit det på spåren och
är nu extremt upphetsade:
The Independent t ex:
http://www.independent.co.uk/arts-entertainment/books/news/lost-larsson-manuscripts-found-in-sweden-1995019.html
"The National Library of Sweden last night revealed that it was in possession
of two science fiction stories, sent by a 17-year-old Larsson to a magazine in
the 1970s in an attempt at making his publishing debut.
Unlike the labyrinthine Millennium novels, the teenage works, The Crystal Balls
and The Flies, are not thought to run to more than five pages each.
In a letter accompanying his speculative submission to the Jules Verne
magazine, Larsson described himself as "a 17-year-old guy from Umea in the
north of Sweden with dreams of becoming an author and journalist".
The magazine abruptly crushed those dreams, rejecting his first tentative
literary efforts. *
Decades later, in 2007, the stories were donated to the library as part of a
wider archive provided by the Jules Verne magazine. And there they gathered
dust until yesterday, and the library's public revelation."
(* Men om historierna ligger kvar, menar Bertil att han INTE refuserade dem;
det som refuserades sändes tillbaka. De hamnade väl bara i limbo.)
Kanadensisk TV:
http://www.cbc.ca/arts/books/story/2010/06/08/stieg-larsson-stories.html
"The science fiction stories, written about 1970 when Larsson was just 17, were
sent to a periodical called the Jules Verne Magazine, but never published. ...
Swedish National Library spokeswoman Haken Farje said the library received the
unpublished manuscripts as a donation, but she knew no details of the stories.
Whether the works are published would be up to Larsson's estate-holders — his
father and brother".
The Daily Telegraph:
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/culture/books/booknews/7812121/Stieg-Larssons-unseen-stories-discovered-in-local-library.html
"Larsson wrote the science fiction stories when he was 17 and dreaming of a
career as a writer. He sent them to a Swedish sci-fi magazine for publication
but they were rejected. They were discovered in the archives of the Swedish
National Library in Stockholm.
Hakan Farje, a library spokesman, described the tales as Larsson's "first
tentative efforts" at fiction and said they were given by a private donor in
2007".
CBS:
http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2010/06/08/ap/entertainment/main6560548.shtml?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+CBSNewsPCAnswer+(PC+Answer%3A+CBSNews.com)
"The best-selling author sent the short stories to the Swedish science fiction
magazine Jules Verne when he was 17, hoping to have them published, but the
magazine rejected them."
Och iknande står på många fler ställen. Bl a AP har skickat ut ett telegram om
saken, säkert en riktig newsflash som stoppar pressarna.
Nu är inte de här novellerna som grävs fram här och där något att ha. (Vilket
inte rent teoretiskt kan hindra Tom Clancy eller någon annan hackwriter att
göra en förlängning i romanform på 500 sidor, med Stieg Larssons namn som
blinkande hologram på omslaget, om nu far och bror Larsson tycker att de saknar
pengar.)
