Our guest for this out-of-season bonus episode is Hanna: a lifelong Moomins fan and reader of the books in Polish!
We talk about faithfulness in adaptation, the differences between the Polish and English translations, and being out on the raw shore of the Baltic sea.
Hanna has a unique perspective on the Hemulen Who Loved Silence, which we read last season. A case is made for quiet people who don't want to have to bite to be heard.
Hanna's Spirit recommendations are bang on topic! Her Spirit of the Moomins is London Drawing Group's online class Tove Jansson: drawing Moomin landscapes. Her Spirit of the Podgoblin's Hat isthe BBC documentary Moominland Tales: the life of Tove Jansson.
