Jenny Hval's Paradise Rot/The Afterlife of Steig Larsson

Scandinavia fuckin' rips: it's always cold, it's mostly dark and its very existence pisses off CHUDs. We talk about Norwegian singer and novelist Jenny Hval's debut Paradise Rot, published in English by Verso, and how the legacy of Steig Larsson, the best-selling Communist in all of fiction, is being dismantled by capitalism. Also, an extended digression into how lit Castlevania is.
