Eduard T\u00fc\u00fcr (born 15. August 1961) is a prose writer. \u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

T\u00fc\u00fcr grew up at Rummu in Harjumaa County. He has graduated from one university as an engineer and from another as a psychologist. T\u00fc\u00fcr has worked as a journalist, as an air traffic controller at Estonian Air, at the Estonian Civil Aviation Administration (was its director general from 1996\u20131998), at Tallinn Airport and as manager of the Uniprint printery. He publishes books at his one-man company Iibis. He is a member of the Estonian Writers\u2019 Union from 2019. His father was cartoonist and graphic artist Eduard T\u00fc\u00fcr (1931-2022).<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Eduard T\u00fc\u00fcr\u2019s first book Rossi.nimi<\/em> (\u2018The Name of Rossi\u2019) appeared in 2012. In Estonian literature, Eduard T\u00fc\u00fcr\u2019s creation has been found to reveal similarities with Mihkel Mutt and Toomas Raudam. T\u00fc\u00fcr plays with words and sentence constructions, irritates the reader with mythology. He has said that he likes intense text and shifted personal space spiced with cultural allusions. T\u00fc\u00fcr\u2019s childhood pictures are realistic and nostalgic but tough and painful. Descriptions are laconic, the depiction of the Soviet time includes hints at irony and perception of the absurd. With personal time moving forward, T\u00fc\u00fcr\u2019s text becomes more playful and richer in fantasy. Psychologisms remain but puns and games with images are added to them.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n
