Comet in Moominland, the first full-length Moomin novel, was published 80 years ago. Tove Jansson revised the story a decade later and again in 1968, reframing adventures (and adding new characters). Now, for the first time, this edition can be read in English in a brand-new translation.
Tove Jansson’s story of a mysterious, threatening comet and the journey of discovery by Moomintroll and his friend Sniff across the Lonely Mountains has captivated generations of readers worldwide. The story introduced the much-loved Moomin characters, including free-spirited Snufkin, the philosophical Muskrat, the intuitive Snorkmaiden, the obsessive Hemulens, and the strange Hattifatteners.
Written in the aftermath of the Second World War, Comet in Moominland reminds us to be brave, to welcome outsiders, and to nurture hope, even when calamity threatens.
