Stieg Larssons third book, The Girl Who Kicked the Hornet's Nest, will be released October 1st at 10 am at The English Bookshops in Stockholm and Uppsala!
[ UPDATE June 8th, 2015: After seven amazing years in Gamla stan/Old Town, we are now in a bigger shop in Södermalm's SoFo district, on Södermannagatan 22. ]
Located in the Stockholm Old Town, at Lilla Nygtan 11, the bookshop carry pretty much the same range in Stockholm as in the Uppsala shop, except for SF & Fantasy.
You will find the same welcoming atmosphere here, as the Uppsala English Bookshop is famous for: an interior jampacked with exciting books, relaxing chairs and a dedicated staff. We already love this new place in the Old Town of Stockholm and hope you will too!
With the words "that epicist of the female experience, who with scepticism, fire and visionary power has subjected a divided civilisation to scrutiny", Doris Lessing is awarded.

Modern Fiction Book of the Month – February 2025
Imprisoned in the quarries of Syracuse, thousands of defeated Athenians hang on by the thinnest of threads. They’re fading in the baking heat, but not everything is lost: they can still recite lines from Greek tragedy when tempted by Lampo and Gelon with goatskins of wine and scraps of food. And so an idea is born. Because, after all, you can hate the invaders but still love their poetry… The funniest tragedy you’ll ever read.

Something doesn’t add up at the seaside… As an actuary for an insurance company, Una’s job is to spot patterns that other people might miss. When the data for her latest project – into the predicted number of deaths in seaside resorts – shows a blip in her forecasts, Una’s untarnished reputation at work is at risk. And as strange fatalities are befalling her mother’s bingo crowd, Una must put aside her spreadsheets and begin to investigate. A witty mystery, with math and murders.
