Notes from an Island, offers both a memoir of, and homage to, this beloved island home. Tove''s spare prose, and Tuulikki''s subtle washes and aquatints, combine to form a work of meditative beauty.This edition includes the first UK publication of Tove''s acclaimed 1961 essay/prose poem, The Island. |
