Moomin: Volume 8

Moomin: The Complete Lars Jannson Comic Strip is a comprehensive collection of the beloved stories devised by one of their first writers. It portrays the whimsical and often surreal adventures of the Moomin in hilarious, dry fashion.

Volume 8 captures Jannson at his best. It opens with one of the Moomin growing bored of life but it is boredom itself which blinds him to the exciting world around him. This tunnel-vision leads to unexpected situations. Moomin: The Complete Lars Jannson Comic Strip makes for an excellent series of coffee table books with any reader being able to imbibe the humour at a glance.
