life and work

Her first poems appeared in the magazines Värske Rõhk and Vikerkaar , which were soon followed by their debut. Her poetry has been compared with punk and at the same time highly praised by respected colleagues: Hasso Krull wrote : This is a collection of poems “that shakes you: The lyrics are dense, the tempo is high, even feverish; various registers of language alternate quickly, sometimes kaleidoscopically; One rushes from a high level of style to a low level, from sublimity to submissiveness, from euphoria to lethargy, from affected repetitions to logical paradoxes.
