plant

Lintrop made his debut in the university newspaper and in anthologies before his first volume of poetry appeared in 1985. It was praised by the critics because it "attracted attention from its professionalism." However, no further volumes of poetry followed, as the author concentrated on his folkloric research. His second collection, published in 2000, was all the more welcomed, the poems of which have been compared with the poetry of Heiti Talvik and Uku Masing , but also with younger contemporary poets such as Doris Kareva or Hasso Krull . His later poetry is said to have echoes of Buddhism , with which he continues a current within Estonian poetry, as it was mainly cultivated by Ernst Enno and Uku Masing.

Lintrop also wrote prose books, for example a diary about a stay in Italy (2014) and a travel book about the Himalayas (2018).
