The newly independent Estonia may be moving forward from its dark past, but not quickly enough for young lovers Oskar, an Estonian university student, and Erika, a Baltic German descended from a now defunct nobility. The old prejudices remain, and they are strong between the Baltic Germans and the Estonians who once worked on their estates. After meeting Erika's grandfather to request her hand in marriage, Oskar questions the source of his love: is he merely a slave pining after his master? Does he really love Erika as a person, or is he subconsciously drawn to her ancestry and the dynamics of the old order? Published in 1935, I Loved a German is one of the final and best-known works of celebrated Estonian author A.H. Tammsaare. It has been praised for its psychological realism, its diary format and its rare Baltic German perspective, and has been adapted for both stage and screen. Things are not easy for young lovers Oskar, an Estonian university student, and Erika, a Baltic German descended from a now defunct nobility, in newly independent Estonia. The old prejudices remain, and Oskar questions the reasons for his love. Praised for its humour and psychological realism, the novel has been adapted for both stage and screen.

Aggiungi al carrelloPaperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. When the Storm Fell Silent is an ironic, tragic and contradictory work which reflects the authors ambivalent attitude to the 1905 Revolution in Tsarist Russia, which Estonia was then a part of. He sympathised with the policies but disagreed with the random violence. This however does not do justice to the complexity of this great work which comprehends the difficult truth that the majoritys altruism, humanity and desire to improve other peoples lives can end in so much suffering without any durable gains. What appears simple becomes entangled in a web of mendacity, double-speak and false promises.Indrek, the central character, clearly represents Tammsaares own convictions, but not exactly. The author can approach any subject and stun the reader with his novel interpretations, and also gives the reader the opportunity to read his words and infer varied understandings and appreciations. Every actor in a revolution is represented here: from left to right and back again, every striking worker, every shopkeeper, every landowner, every policeman, every spy, every workers wife, every outsider and every starry-eyed teenager. Few people are who they first seem to be, and the shifting trends of the crowd are followed and carefully examined a force of nature that ultimately is spent. When the Storm Fell Silent is Volume III in the Truth and Justice pentalogy, a monumental work which has been translated into many European languages, but only now being published in English for the first time by Vagabond Voices. The first two volumes, Vargamaee and Indrek deal with the personal and the familial and this third volume with the public and societal, but always both elements are present: one in foreground and one in the background, because Tammsaare is as much a holistic writer and he is an extraordinarily imaginative one. In this third volume of Tammsaare's monumental pentalogy, the protagonist Indrek finds himself alone in a working-class district of an industrial town during the revolutionary year of 1905. This a new chapter in his troubled and adventurous existence, and he learns about the conflicts and violence that will characterise the new century. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

Aggiungi al carrelloPaperback. Condizione: New. Andres, an Estonian peasant, purchases a smallholding in a marshy part of the country, which the novel is named after. He takes his young wife, and an incident with their cow sets the tone for a life of struggle in which the family grows and gradually lifts itself out of extreme poverty. They don't only have to strive against the elements, but also against their neighbour Pearu, a wily and ruthless man. This Tolstoyan epic amongst the peasantry and the restless city (in volumes 2 - 4) tells the story of how Tsarist Estonia developed into the First Republic through the experiences of a family and in particular the partly autobiographical character of Indrek, who leaves the land to get an education at the end of this volume. This monumental work by Estonia's greatest writer is a European classic which has for too long been neglected in the English-speaking world.
