Birthday in Moominland
In honor of my wife, K. A. Laity, I'm proud to add information on Tove Jansson Rediscovered to ComicsResearch.org. Kate's one of the few American academics to write about Jansson, the Finnish author of the world-famous Moomin series of novels, picture-books, and comic strips. Ask your library to order this book so that you can read Kate's great essay on the Moomin comic strips.
The Moomin comics are now being published by Drawn and Quarterly - hurrah! Click here for their information on Jansson, here for 90 sample strips, and here to read two of Kate's reviews, amongst many others.
