From one Larsson’s best-selling novels, an adventure story rich in suspense. A tale of pirates, smoke-filled taverns, treasure, boarding parties, stormy seas and dead calms, but also describing the slave trade, smugglers and the atrocious conditions in which the sailors lived. An evening of culinary delights and literary culture during which participants can share flavours and emotions.
