Lisbeth Salander, the portrayal of aspergers in the Millenium trilogy by Steig Larsson

Has anyone read these books? I have got them at home and plan to read them soon. Good to see a woman with Aspergers in a work of fiction.

  • This is true to a point, but from what I read Larsson never wanted to give her a definitive diagnosis because he wanted people to see her as a whole person, not bound by a label.

    I will have to read the books to have a better formed opinion.
