“All the evil”: the events triggered by her attempt to kill Zala when she was still a young girl. Her being confinded to a psychiatric clinic, tortured and abused by Teleborian on top of the bargain. Tough call for a 13-year-old, don’t you think?

But maybe that’s a translation flaw. “Allt det onda” in the Swedish original indicates that a lot of bad things happened.

Welcome or as they say in Swedish: det var så lite

Anyone think maybe it doesn’t refer to the Zala situation? Perhaps it could be for whatever situation that caused her to get the dragon tattoo. Just a thought.

That could be true SCPW. Never thought of that

Where compulsory care of Salander tantamount to modern slavery when she was sexually abused and deprived of their right of disposal over he inheritance, which amounted to several million Swedish crowns? Indeed this would be “all the evil”.
