Viivi Luik, born in 1946, is one of the most treasured writers of contemporary Estonian literature. Her poetry captivates audiences with its musicality and is often characterized by perceiving the world and reflecting feelings through nature, rendering its mystic beauty, clarity and all-embracing fragility in words. In her poetry the journey from the nature of the countryside to the city has been evident; the contrasts seem to be especially sharp in her excellent poetry for children.

She has written plays, essays, novels and children literature. Her novel The Seventh Spring of Peace (1985 ), observing country life in post-war Soviet Estonia seen through a child’s implacable eyes, is one of the most outstanding Estonian novels that has appeared – also because of its interesting representation and use of language.

Having worked as an archivist and librarian, since 1967 Viivi Luik has been a professional writer.
