This is a Christmas-adjascent bonus because I just can’t stop making Christmas specials (it’s a problem, or a feature, or a bug).
A fir tree decorated with shells, pearl necklaces, a top hat, a mirror and other things precious to the Moomin family. On top of it is a rose. In front of it is an oil lantern. Around it are gathered various little creatures eating food and enjoying the light and the prettiness. Behind the tree to the right under a table, partially covered by a tablecloth hide the Moomin family looking scared.

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. (This picture is of Hanna’s Polish editions of the books).
The full box set of Hanna’s Moomin chapter books from 2008. The style for these Polish editions is very colourful. Each book has a white background, the title in coloured letters at the bottom and then a large colour illustration filling the rest of the space.

I wrote this poem about my dad on the day of his cremation
Screen shot of a poem that reads: Today there is snow on mountains you’ve never walked on but a part of you is in that snow. A part of you is in all snow. A part of you is in all mountains. You are in all my memories now, whether you were there or not. I am not on those mountains. Your body will soon not be on this earth. But I can see those mountains from here, today is the first time I’ve seen them white. It feels significant. Your body will become ash and air and soil and so many other things. Everything changes, but nothing ever goes away. Even when we aren’t together we always also are. Today there is snow on mountains you’ve never walked on covering paths that I have walked without you. But also today we walk through that snow together. We know those paths so well. I began walking with you and you will walk with me always, in the places I am and the places I am not, in the world without and the world unseen. It feels significant.
