Narrative During Books Moominvalley in November (Mumintrollen #9)

Tove Jansson's Moomin characters and books are admired the world over. In the United States the series beginning with Finn Family Moomintroll (first published in English in 1945) has accumulated generations of fans. Since Farrar, Straus and Giroux began reissuing the books in 1989, grateful readers old and new have been thrilled to have the stories available again. At last the final installment is being published – oddly, the only book that features none of the Moomin family themselves, though it does take place at their house. There familiar characters converge – Snufkin, the Hemulen, Fillyjonk, and others – seeking out the Moomins' welcoming company, only to find them absent. All remain at the house, all have very different personalities that clash often, but something about their homey cohabitation during the icy winter changes each visitor in a gratifying way. As The Times Literary Supplement put it, Moominvalley in November is "possibly the cleverest of the Moomin books."

Crit About Books Moominvalley in November (Mumintrollen #9)

Such a melancholy children's book. But why not? Children are not happy all the time. I could definitely relate to this one around the age of 12, although when I re-read it as an adult, it made more sense.

Crisply bittersweet, a farewell to the Moomins who do not show up themselves.

Okay, this book is a little of the charm and whimsy I missed from the last book!Last book Moominpappa decided he wanted to live in a lighthouse on a (near-)deserted island, so he packed up his family and left without so much of a notice to any of their friends. Well this book covers what basically happens to the rest of Moominvalley while they're gone. Apparently their friends and acquaintances all want to visit the Moomins, only to discover they're nowhere to be found. Instead of going home

This is a good story to end the Moomintroll series. While the Moomintroll family is away, six others come to live in their house and have various relationship issues. I liked the good descriptions of autumn and winter, and the deep characterizations of the characters.

Shamelessly itself.Beautiful.



Wish I'd done this on the other Moomin books but some of my favorite quotes from this one:"All you have to do is walk out of the door with your hat on at a jaunty angle!""It's a little sad when you forget other people's names but it's lovely to be able to completely forget your own."
