The assignment at the museum has been part of the probation that replaced the final part of his prison sentence in May. Nesser was sentenced in 2024 to 18 months in prison for three counts of aggravated tax fraud.
On Sunday, his probation ends, after which he will no longer have to wear ankle shackles, something Sveriges Radio's Kulturnytt was the first to report.
On his last day of work, Nesser tells Kulturnytt that he openly showed off the ankle cuff to curious visitors.
Now there is practical work waiting at home on the farm. But also writing.
"I've already written 150 pages by hand. I wasn't allowed to bring a computer into prison," he tells TT during a temporary break with his dog.
Nesser says he is not good at non-fiction, but that he interviewed the inmates he met during his time in prison.
There are so many incredibly exciting fates. But we'll see what happens. I need to get some distance first and, to begin with, another book I've already written will be coming out this fall (the crime novel Domini, Bonniers).
What else do you take away from your prison experience?
What you suffer there is a kind of low-intensity violation of human dignity. You don't question anything, you just obey.
Nesser debuted as an author in 1988 and has written 48 books that have sold around 20 million copies worldwide.
