We Read Comet in Moominland

from Eleanor & Alasdair Read That Hosted by Eleanor Morton & Alasdair Beckett-King

They're soft, they're white, they're somewhere between cute and creepy — it's Eleanor and Alasdair. And for this episode, we read Tove Jansson's 1946 adventure Comet In Moominland (Kometjakten) translated by Elizabeth Portch. We ask, what does it feel like to touch a Moomintroll? How do you pronounce Tove? And is there any better response to environmental catastrophe than baking a cake? Support Eleanor & Alasdair by buying us a coffee: ko-fi.com/readthat_podcast
