Maarja Kangro

Maarja Kangro (1973) was born in Tallinn where she currently lives. She is doubtlessly one of the most outstanding voices of Estonian contemporary authors: wry, ironic, incisive. She has published 14 books of fiction, poetry, and non-fiction, authoring also eight opera librettos and five books for children. She has won numerous literary awards, and in 2018, she published a non-fiction book titled “My Awards”, partly a study of cultural awards and prestige, partly a memoir, dedicated to her colleagues. Her works have been translated into 20 languages, and she is herself a translator, translating mainly from Italian and German.
