12/18: the true deceiver

I read Tove Jansson's Moomin books when I was younger, so I was intrigued upon learning that she also wrote novels for "grown-ups."  I took her True Deceiver with me on the plane to New Jersey and I finished the novel just before we landed.  It was great, as well as beautifully translated by Thomas teal.  I look forward to reading more of Jansson's novels and maybe even revisiting the Moomins in the upcoming year.
