An Existential Look at “Moomin Stories”: A Philosophical Commentary on Olga Tokarczuk’s “Moomins: Road to Maturity”

Summary/Abstract: The article is a philosophical commentary on Olga Tokarczuk’s therapy program Moomins: Road to Maturity. The main goal of the article is to show the existential background of Moomin Stories, and thus go beyond the interpretation proposed by the Nobel Prize winner in the perspective of depth psychology. The article emphasizes the adoption of a different attitude towards Tokarczuk’s reading of Moomins, which is reductionist and deterministic. Meanwhile, the existential interpretation allows for a critical discussion of the assumptions adopted in the psychological and developmental reading of the Nobel Prize winner.
