Adolf Rammo (25 September 1922 \u2013 2 February 1998) was a poet and children\u2019s and youth writer.<\/span><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tRammo was born in Narva as the son of a craftsman, attended the primary school of Kreenholm textile factory in Narva, Narva progymnasium, Narva industrial school and State Industrial School in Tallinn, which he completed in 1941 as a locksmith.\u00a0 In same year, he was recruited to the Red Army and participated in World War II. After being released from the army, he worked in Tallinn as a cook, delivery man and boilermaker. From 1953\u20131957, he was a journalist, thereafter, lived as a freelance writer in Tallinn. Adolf Rammo was a member of the Estonian Writers\u2019 Union from 1971. His wife Helju Rammo was also a children\u2019s author.<\/span><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tRammo published his first poems in 1947. His first poetry collection appeared in 1957. The poems are mainly based on the motifs of his hometown Narva. The frequent themes in his verses are memories of childhood, hardships of the war and depiction of workmen\u2019s everyday life. Rammo\u2019s later poetry contains more depth of thought. Adolf Rammo\u2019s poetry collections were met by critics cautiously.<\/span><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tRammo\u2019s books for children had greater success, particularly a trilogy of youth stories with autobiographical elements about the life and adventures of teenage boys in Narva in the 1930s.\u00a0 The strengths of these books are his fluent skill of storytelling and realistic capturing of the circumstances of the period. The novella Kuskil Kurek\u00fcla k\u00fcngastel<\/em> (\u2018Somewhere on the Hills of Kurek\u00fcla\u2019) depicts the life of Narva schoolboys in the post-war years.<\/span><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tRammo has also published several collections of poetry for children.<\/span><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n
