Paperback. Condition: New. Riga may be over 800 years old as a city, but its status as capital of an independent Latvia is only a century old, with half of that time spent under Soviet rule. Despite this, it has established itself as a vibrant, creative hub, attracting artists, performers, and writers from across the Baltic regi…on. The stories gathered here chronicle this growth and on-going transformation, and offer glimpses into the dark humour, rich history, contrasting perspectives, and love of the mythic, that sets the city's artistic community apart.As its history might suggest, Riga is a work in progress; and for many of the characters in these stories, it is the possibilities of what the city might become, more than merely what it is now, that drives the imagination of its people.This book is published with the support of the Ministry of Culture of the Republic of Latvia and The Latvian Writers Union.Foreword by former President of Latvia (1999-2007) Vaira Vike-Freiberga.Translated from the Latvian by Kaija Straumanis, Suzanne McQuade, Uldis Balodis, Ieva Lesinska, Marta Ziemelis and Zanete Vevere Pasqualini.
