Andra Teede made her debut in an anthology of young authors in 2005 and published her first book at the age of 17.

The debut volume A Taxi in the Tallinn Sky

Her debut volume A Taxi in the Tallinn Sky (2006) received almost unanimous critical acclaim. Here parallels to Jürgen Rooste were discovered, a poet with whom the author was later often compared. Only the poet Sven Kivisildnik , known for his biting and sharp-tongued criticism , came up with a rough outline. However, he was directed more against the editors of the collection than against the poet herself, who he recommended “to continue writing, but to behave very paranoid towards all irresponsible experts and entrepreneurs.” The author proves that the author was serious and not malicious The fact that he brought out the third and fourth volumes (2009, 2011) of the now well-known poet in his own publishing house.

In the second collection of poems, the literary scholar Mart Velsker praised the “very good sense of rhythm” and called the volume “a strong signal from the cosmos, the confirmation that one has really reached the stars.” The poet colleague Vahur also spoke of a “new star” Afanasjev . The author consolidated her position with her other volumes of poetry, which were regularly reviewed in the most important magazines.

Andra Teede has been the scriptwriter of the extremely successful Estonian television series Õnne 13 , initiated by Astrid Reinla , and which is still running today.
