Il giallo svedese contemporaneo come 'narrazione a dominante distopica'. Åsa Larsson, Liza Marklund e Stieg Larsson.

This thesis takes into consideration three popular contemporary Swedish crime writers – Liza Marklund, Åsa Larsson and Stieg Larsson – considering their novels as “dystopic narratives”. Adopting this point of view allows the reader to find a relationship between the real world and the catastrophic, literary one represented by the books. Through a thematic analysis of the novels this work shows how the writers construct dystopic universes in order to discuss some real social problems of their time.
