A brand new book – “An Introduction to Estonian Literature” (editor Hilary Bird) has now been published by the Estonian Institute.
“Hilary Bird’s “Introduction to Estonian Literature” is truly a pioneering work, and a welcome contribution for anyone with an interest in the lively and flourishing literature of this small but culturally vibrant country.
Ms. Bird’s coverage is not merely of the modern writers, some of whose work is available in English translation, but also of literature in the Estonian language from the earliest times, which has been a closed book up to now to anyone without a knowledge of the language.”
