Tammsaare's Truth and JusticeTranslated from Estonian to English by Inna Feldbach and Alan Peter TreiTruth and Justice, written in 1926-1933, is considered to be Tammsaare's most famous work, and one of the foundational works in Estonian literature. We offer you the first volume of the saga, Andres and Pearu.Written during the rise of dictators - Adolf Hitler, Joseph Stalin, Benito Mussolini - the social epic captures the evolution of Estonia from Tsarist province to independent state. Based partly on the author's own life, Truth and Justice explores the contrast between the urban middle class and the hard-working peasantry.Tammsaare draws an ironic portrait of urban intellectuals who have absorbed the middle and upper class mores and abandoned their moral principles. Volume I, which we've subtitled Andres and Pearu, presents life in an Estonian village as farmers battle against nature in the last quarter of 19th century. The two main characters, Andres and Pearu, both unique and powerful men, represent the bivalent dynamic of human nature, not only good and evil, but hope and conservatism, conquest and pettiness. Tammsaare's saga explores the ways that these two tendencies influence each other within each character. See more at: http://www.hauteculturebooks.com
