About this book
A grandmother and her granddaughter live out a summer of play, talk, love, and exploration on a tiny island in the Gulf of Finland. This first, career-spanning collection of Jansson’s stories delves into themes of travel, artistic creation, and living among people as flawed as oneself. Here Jansson takes a darker look at the subjects that animate the best of her work: solitude and community, art and life, love and hate. The art of loving, creating, and living is examined in this group of quietly moving episodes from the lives of two artists.
