are like pieces of scattered light.' Ali Smith Following the widely
acclaimed and bestselling The Summer Book, here is A Winter Book

introduced by Ali Smith. A Winter Book features 13 stories from
Tove Jansson's first book for adults, The Sculptor's Daughter

1996), translated into English and published here for the first
time.
