Snow

by Tove Jansson

The writer and artist Tove Jansson (1914–2001) is best known as the creator of the Moomin stories, which have been published in 35 languages.

'Snow' is taken from A Winter Book, which brings together the best of Tove Jansson's short fiction, including her own favourite stories, selected by Ali Smith from Jansson's five original volumes.

'Written with such a lightness of touch that it seems miraculous, these stories are a further revelation of Tove Jansson’s heart warming genius.' Ali Smith

'As smooth and odd and beautiful as sea-worn driftwood, as full of light and air as the Nordic summer. We are lucky to have these stories collected at last.' Philip Pullman.

Sort of Books will be publishing the entire collection of Tove Jansson's adult prose over the next seven years.

'Snow' is reproduced by kind permission of Sort of Books.
