A Priceless Nest Kristiina Ehin2009

Kristiina Ehin's work is much loved and honoured in Estonia and her poetry is finding an ever-wider audience of admirers in the English-speaking world and beyond, but the fact that she is also a very gifted writer of prose is not yet well-known outside Estonia.

The stories in this book have their roots in an age-old oral story-telling tradition. They are very singular fairy tales for grown-ups - genuine and many-layered, contemporary, yet at the same time primeval. They have the surreal, fluid quality of dreams.
