Notes from an Island is both a memoir and homage to the Klovharun island which the two women, Tove Jansson and Tuulikki Pietilä, loved intensely and relinquished only when pressed by age. It is also a unique collaboration between two artists. Tove’s spare, precise prose – diary entries, vignettes, and extracts from Brunström’s log – frame the subtle washes and aquatints created by Tuulikki. Book in English.

— Suomeksi —

Notes from an Island on sekä muistelma että kunnianosoitus Klovharunin saarelle, jota Tove Jansson ja Tuulikki Pietilä rakastivat kiihkeästi ja luopuivat vasta iän pakottamana. Se on myös ainutlaatuinen yhteistyö kahden taiteilijan välillä. Tove Janssonin tarkkaa proosaa – sisältäen päiväkirjamerkinnät, vinjetit sekä otteet Brunströmin puusta – kehystävät Tuulikin luomat hienovaraiset ​​pesu- ja akvatinta tekniikoilla luodut maalaukset. Englanninkielinen kirja. 

— På svenska —

Notes from an island är både en memoarbok och en hyllning till ön Klovharun som de två kvinnorna, Tove Jansson och Tuulikki Pietilä, älskade intensivt och avstod endast när de var pressade av ålder. Det är också ett unikt samarbete mellan två konstnärer. Tove Janssons precisa prosa – inklusive dagboksanteckningar, vinjetter och utdrag ur Brunströms trä – ramas in av de subtila målningar som Tuulikki skapat med tvätt- och akvatint tekniker. Bok på engelska.
