In the years since Mr. Larsson started writing the novels, Sodermalm has evolved from a gritty, working-class neighborhood into Stockholm’s hippest district, with the area south of Folkungagatan — nicknamed SoFo — the trendsetting epicenter of the entire city.
“The area has exploded over the last three years,” said Mats Sjoquist, co-owner of Kocksgatan 17 Herrekipering (Kocksgatan 17; 46-8-408-15014; www.kocksgatan17.se), an elegant men’s wear store that opened in SoFo in 2008, selling refined merchandise like trilby hats (599 Swedish kronor, or $76 at 7.91 kronor to $1) and leather laptop bags (999 kronor). But Mr. Sjoquist is skeptical of the neighborhood’s aspirational moniker: “We should be careful about drawing comparisons with London and New York, here in Sweden,” he said.”
