About This Item
Helsinki: Schildts, 1994. Illustrated Edition . Hardcover. Fine/Fine. First thus, the revised edition. When first published in 1968 Tove Jansson insisted that her first foray into adult's literature would not include illustrations of any kind - so intent was she in distancing herself from the Moomins. By 1994 she had mellowed somewhat and agreed to the inclusion of photographs from her own family archives as well as one of her own drawings for this new edition. The original Schildts Swedish language editions of Tove Jansson's works are always the most difficult to locate due to their comparatively tiny print-runs and this one is no exception - very hard to find and particularly in such superb condition as this one. pp. 167, illustrated, Fine in Fine dustjacket.
