“The Shutter-Closer had a strange appearance, somewhat human-like, somewhat animal-like, but neither when put together. She was yellow and tall, her head almost brushing the eaves. And what a strange wavy shape her body made! I wasn’t afraid at all, but sputtered in laughter. The Shutter-Closer stopped, turned her head to look at me, and stared for a very, very long time with bright red eyes.” - from Panga-Rehe Stories

The first English-language edition of a surreal 1975 book by the Estonian artist Jüri Arrak (perhaps best known in the US for his work on the legendary animation Suur Tõll ). "Panga-Rehe Farmstead" is an old house where the artist and his family spent the summer. "The days passed as wonderful summer days always do: we sunbathed, swam in the sea, hiked in the forest, and all helped to cook in the big kitchen. But every night, I had strange dreams. I believe you probably haven't had some of them yet, and that's why I wrote this book."
