Tove Jansson – Tee työtä ja rakasta (Finnish)

Tove Jansson (1914–2001) was a real multi-talent – a painter, author, illustrator, writer, songwriter and more.

This biography by Tuula Karjalainen positions Tove Jansson’s long, colourful and productive life as part of the history of the 20th century and explains how Jansson’s life and art were closely intertwined and how Moominvalley and its residents, for example, were created around the time of the Second World War, when the author herself had to escape the cruel times into her own imagination, a gentler world.
