Let's discuss "THE TRUE DECEIVER" by TOVE JANSSON + dinner & drinks at WILDE BAR

Details

Deception—the lies we tell ourselves and the lies we tell others—is the subject of this, Tove Jansson’s most unnerving and unpredictable novel. Winner of the 2011 Best Translated Book Award (Fiction) award.

Snow has been falling on the village all winter long. It covers windows and piles up in front of doors. The sun rises late and sets early, and even during the day there is little to do but trade tales. This year everybody’s talking about Katri Kling and Anna Aemelin.

The story that unfolds between these seemingly polar opposite women showcases the nature of truth, lies, and the human capacity for both good and evil.

As usual, after the discussion we'll go to Wilde Bar for dinner, drinks, and conversation. We hope to see you then!
