Noppeid taevaselt teelt. Noppeid vaevaselt teelt

by Arvo Valton

Arvo Valtoni uues kaksikromaanis vaatleb vanameister kahe looja – muusiku ja kunstniku elu läbi meie lähiajaloo. Küllap võiks see olla paljudele tõelistele kunstnikele, ka muusikutele ja kirjanikele deviisiks, et kui sind vaevab elu koledus, siis paku maailmale ilu kogu oma südames.

About the author

Arvo Valton (Vallikivi) is one of those writers who began writing in the nineteen-sixties and, having already seen the worst sides of the Soviet occupation, did not have fear of it. He was fresh and humorous, then satirical and grotesque while describing the absurd system of the huge state. He has tried his hand at all genres, from voluminous novels to the briefest of aphorisms, and has also written literary criticism, plays, film scenarios, opera librettos, travel books, poetry and non-fiction.
A versatile writer, he has also written for children. Interested in mythology, and the wider context of history, he has gone through the early history of Europe and Asia, always against violence in politics. And he is against Eurocentrism, one might say.

Valton is a productive writer today and has been translated into many languages.
