pickMore of a conversation with Tove than a mere epistolary. The compilation gives us a sneak peek into the different facets of her life and work. Even while describing something mundane, her words and descriptions make it sound all the more alluring.

It's wonderful how the fact that she is an artist always peeks out in her descriptions, similes and metaphors.

I am not sure who she is quoting, however these words seemed to have had an impact on her.

Tove describes the cities she visits like it's a work of art. She conveys the essence of the cities and it's people so eloquently throughout her letters. Even though she adds tiny illustrations in her letters, I feel she already paints a magnificent picture through her words.

pickOhhhh. Sublime. I could have kept reading more and more. I simply adore her.
Oh how I love her 😍
Her writing. Her thoughts. That she was so drawn to what she loved but still retained the sense of obligation. That she created the Moomins 🤩
Oh my. This was gifted to me on Christmas Eve as part of the Icelandic tradition we've adopted:)
I always start the new year with a book of letters or diary entries and this is perfect 😍😍😍
I adore Tove Jansson . Bliss.
