it is clear jo nesbo: A quick and resounding “no” answer on whether to trust ChatGPT if you ever run out of ideas. “When another writer continues Stieg Larsson’s novels [‘Millennium’]Although it is not one of my favorites, it has an interesting project, it has become a business idea. Thinking about it scares me Harry Hole something like this could happen”. Norwegian cares equally and ‘behaves badly’ his star detectiveconfessed with “Eclipse” (Reservoir Books / Spring), 13th installment We are nearing the end of the series that started in 1997.
Nesbo (Oslo, 1960), which has sold 55 million copies of twenty detective novels translated into 50 languages, now presents a Harry Hole in Barcelona where he has left alone for four years and faces a sadistic murderer. It looks like the police have lost the fear of death. “However He has become more sensitive and emotional. It’s all a matter of age guys, we get more sensitive as we get older. He was born with the idea that everyone he loved got the vampire’s bite: lost or died. His mother, a suicidal couple with mental illness when he was young, his colleagues… After losing the love of his life, he comes to ‘Eclipse’ and travels to Los Angeles., running a suicidal race here: inside, inside and inside. But he is slowly discovering reasons to live.”
In Mecca, Hole is saved from an alcoholic drift by a veteran actress who owes a debt to a Mexican cartel. “It reminds him of his mother and he wants to save her. -To explain-. To do this, he needs money to pay off the debt, and he accepts an offer to clear the name of an Oslo millionaire suspected of murdering two teenagers.”
Hosts and dreadful parasites
Nesbo is unaffected by criticism as it vigorously uploads its plans. “This has to be crime fiction and violence. Much like jealousy has been written about for hundreds of years, but today’s generations are more exposed to stories of violence than perhaps my parents or grandparents, and it is more difficult to impress or surprise them. There is less violence in this book, but the story is less. because he wanted it.” He later clarified that he was inspired by “nature, which can write more horror stories than Stephen King and I combined”, to deal with the “strange coexistence of a host and a parasite.”
And he details how he discovered a very common parasite in the human gut (20% of Brazilians have itclaims) same as “activates pheromones mice, to the point where they are sexually attracted to cats that easily kill them.”

Then the louse grows like a new fish tongue, agonizing and frightening, two-eyed… Don’t think about it when you kiss your partner,” she jokingly advises and invites you to Google for a photo search. Besides, he’s free to imagine what you’ll find in ‘Eclipse’, where he covers topics like euthanasia, childhood abuse or biological weapons.
Russian invasion of Norway
From Nesbo, long before the war in Ukraine, the idea for the series “Occupied” was the idea of ”Norway occupied by Russia in what they call a ‘special operation’ and without opposition from the EU and the US”. “I can’t say I saw it coming. I was just looking at the past, the future. II. World War, When Germany invaded Norway.
It remains a very popular topic there because of the pride of the resistance there, but also the shame of those who believe there is not enough resistance. I was thinking about how people reacted to these situations, to the absence of freedom of the press, and what the people on the street were prepared to sacrifice for freedom or democracy.”
Ellroy “dog” and bulldog
Nesbo takes Hole to Los Angeles, James Ellroy’s precinct. “I’m a big fan of him, a little eccentric and a little crazy, but he was very good at a meeting with him. He said he was not only the greatest crime writer, but also the greatest writer. What if he was the ‘dog’ of crime fiction, and I was the bulldog after him? ,” he remembers with a broad smile.
