Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. This novel paints a fascinating portrait of bohemian culture in Estonia in the last quarter of the twentieth century. The "cavemen" in question are the regulars at the underground (both literally and figuratively) bar called "The Cave," including artists, musicians, writers, and philosophers, who escape the dreary Soviet reality "above" with vodka and high-minded discussion in their secret hideaway. The arrival of national independence upsets the balance of these dissidents' lifestyle, and the narrator recounts how each individual adapts to their newfound freedom. The Cavemen Chronicle presents an illuminating and thrilling look into life on the fringes of Soviet culture, both pre- and post perestroika, and is also a meditation on what it means to be an Estonian.

Condition: new. Pages: 144 Language: Estonian. "Vissi-vissi! Vissi-vissi!" kaigub üle tanuma hele tüdrukuhääl. Ja lehmad tulevad, tulevad kiiruga - nagu pageks nad suu- ja sõrataudi eest. Tõmmu jumega vibalik neiu jõuab kaevule, ammutab ämbriga ning annab lehmadele juua, neid eelnevalt ükshaaval koonule suudeldes. See neiu on Tuuli Botik. Mis pange järele jääb, sellega peseb ta hambaid, loputab silmi ja valab seejärel endale selga, enne undruku õlapaelad alla lastes. Vesi niriseb üle ta pidevast töötegemisest pisut vimmas piha ja küllaldase rinna. Neiu on ilmselt vanem kui esmapilgul paistnud. Võimalik, et ta on käinud koguni nullkursusel. Ometi võib eksimatult öelda, et neid külmast siniseks tõmbuvaid rindu pole veel keegi puutunud - peale päikese ja tuule. 9789916173473.…

Condition: new. Pages: 334 Language: Estonian. Kirjanik, toimetaja ja kriitik Mihkel Mutt on hoidnud oma meeled avatuna ja sule teravana läbi aastakümnete. "Eesti Mõtteloo" sarja köitesse on ta valinud 21. sajandil ilmunud ühiskonnateemaliste esseede paremiku ning järjestanud need nii mõtete järjekindlust kui ka sisemist pinget hoidvaks ahelaks. Kus lõpeb üks kirjatöö, sealt läheb edasi järgmine, maailmavaate terviklikkus ja kaasaegsus lükkavad nende ilmumisdaatumid tagaplaanile ning lugejal ei jää üle muud kui jätkata lehekeeramist hästitempereeritud sõnamuusika rütmis.Raamatu väljaandmist on toetanud Haridus- ja Teadusministeerium, Eesti Kultuurkapital, AS Giga ja Eesti Mõtteloo Sihtkapital. 9789985778128.…

Condition: Wie neu. 542 S., Ln., neuwertig! - "Ich kenne keinen Roman, der die Boheme Sowjetestlands so beschreibt wie dieser. Für den eingeweihten Leser sicher ein Find- und (manchmal) Lachbuch, so wie Mikhel Mutt seine Leute beschreibt. Man muß sich den Lesegenuß erarbeiten, aber das sind diese Beschreibungen wert. Der, der diese Zeit kennt, wird vieles wiedererkennen. Für den anderen ist es eine Entdeckung der besonderen Art, eben der Boheme, die es auch in jener Zeit gab, überall auf der östlichen Seite des Eisernen Vorhangs." Aus der Rezension von Lutz Dettmann in "Mitteilungen aus baltischem Leben" 3/2018.…

Condition: new. Pages: 328 Language: Estonian. Fabian mõtles: millest hakatakse tulevikus ajalugusid kirjutama? Ajalugu - see oli valitsejad, sõjad, revolutsioonid, dünastiad ja impeeriumid. Aga kui saabub ühetasane tuhandeaastane rahuriik, kas sellest libisetakse üle? Kuni jälle tulevad imperaatorid? Kas ajalugu, nagu seda õpetatakse ja loetakse tulevikus, on ainult miski, mis jääb järjest kaugemale? Fabian oleks tahtnud teada, kuidas õpetatakse oma maa ja rahva ajalugu mõnes heaoluriigis, kus mitukümmend aastat polnud juhtunud ühtegi vapustust. Kas selle maa ajalugu seisis oma maa elanike jaoks kõik need aastad ilusasti paigal ja temast polnud midagi nimetamisväärset kõnelda? Kas ajalugu juhtus nende jaoks sellal üksnes mujal - seal, kus oli kole? 9789916173466.…
