The last couple of winters I've read A Winter Book by Tove Jansson for the same reasons as your Mary Oliver selection! At least we are adding back minutes each day now.

That's wild! I read Tove Jansson's The Summer Book religiously every year and wept through the movie. How have I not read A Winter Book? Cannot wait to pick it up.

Ooh you will love it then! Her beach scenes in The Summer Book are some of my favorites. I also love that the Moomins were largely created during WW2 as an outlet from the war that was raging. Her work feels (sadly) more relevant than ever right now.
