London's Friendly Book Club's pick for December is **A Winter Book: Selected Stories** by **Tove Jansson**.

Following the widely acclaimed and bestselling *The Summer Book*, here is a *Winter* Book collection of some of Tove Jansson’s best loved and most famous stories. Drawn from youth and older age, and spanning most of the twentieth century, this newly translated selection provides a thrilling showcase of the great Finnish writer's prose, scattered with insights and home truths. It has been selected and is introduced by Ali Smith.

*A Winter Book* features 13 stories from Tove Jansson's first book for adults,*The Sculptor's Daughter* (1968) plus 7 of her most cherished later stories (from 1971 to 1996), translated into English and published here for the first time.

Please only RSVP if you think you'll be able to make this event. **We host three sessions per book, you only need to attend one.**

Everyone is welcome! Grab your copy and join us for a relaxed and engaging discussion.
