De eerlijke bedrieger
Meesterlijke roman over twee schijnbaar tegengestelde vrouwen In een Zweeds dorpje zet een vreemde jonge vrouw een inbraak bij een bejaarde kunstenares in scène om haar ervan te overtuigen dat ze gezelschap nodig heeft. Niet lang daarna is de berekenende Katri bij de naïeve Anna ingetrokken. Langzaam nemen ze elkaars karaktereigenschappen over. Wie is hier eigenlijk wie aan het bedriegen? ‘Een van haar beste romans… Meeslepend, oorspronkelijk en bizar.’ – The New Yorker ‘De eerlijke bedrieger fonkelt met een scherpte waar je je aan zou kunnen snijden. Een van Janssons meest bedrieglijk verstilde, indrukwekkendste composities.’ – Ali Smith

My First Moomin: Sleepover
Tove Jansson was born in Finland in 1914. She began her career as a cartoonist and went on to write and illustrate many books for adults and children. She drew her first Moomin in the 1930s, just for fun, and in 1945 he became a character in a children's story. Tove became world-famous for her Moomin books, which began with The Moomins and the Great Flood in 1945, closely followed by Comet in Moominland in 1946, Finn Family Moomintroll in 1948 and six more Moomin adventures. During the winter months Tove lived and worked in Helsinki, but in the summertime she stayed on a beautiful remote island in the Gulf of Finland with her long-term partner, the artist Tuulikki Pietilä. Tove Jansson received many prestigious awards during her lifetime, including the international Hans Christian Andersen Medal. She died in 2001, aged eighty-six.
