В эту книгу, помимо единственного написанного Туве Янссон романа «Город солнца» о безмятежной старости на побережье и пронзительной повести «Летняя книга» о девочке, потерявшей мать, а также уже известных русскому читателю рассказов и новелл, вошли и впервые переведенные на русский язык произведения. Северная атмосфера дневниковых «Записок с острова», посвященных строительству дома на Кловхаруне и жизни там, создает эффект присутствия на острове, пронизанном ветрами Финского залива и наполненном криками чаек, бесцеремонно вторгающихся в быт поселенцев. А под общим заголовком «„Бульвар“ и другие тексты» кроется ряд ранних новелл и эссе Янссон, опубликованных в периодических изданиях в разные годы ее творческой деятельности. В них Туве рассказывает, каково быть детским писателем, размышляет о живописи и критикует архитектуру, делающую человека несчастным. И через все это разнообразие текстов в полной мере раскрываются глубина и характер прославленной писательницы.
