Andrus Kasemaa (b. 18. VI 1984) is an Estonian poet.<\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tHe attended Alatskivi High School and went on to complete his studies at the University of Tartu in literature and cultural studies in 2009.<\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tKasemaa is from Juhan Liiv country, or, in other words, the edges of Alatskivi, and thus one may assume that Juhan Liiv\u2019s poetry and lifestyle had some influence on him. After being repeatedly nominated for the Juhan Liiv Poetry Prize, Kasemaa finally won the 40th Juhan Liiv Poetry Prize in 2018 for his poem Oma kaasaegsetele<\/em>\u00a0(\u2018For My Contemporaries\u2019, published in the collection Olla luuletaja<\/em>\u00a0(\u2018To Be a Poet\u2019, 2017).<\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tKasemaa\u2019s poetry is simple, but multifaceted and diverse. In his debut collection, nature lyrics and elements of landscape play a key role, gradually becoming darker in tone and even morbid, in symbolic context. Time and dimension of place are important to the author. Many texts realistically depict his modern social context and the local landscape along Lake Peipsi.<\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tIn addition to poetry, he has published three works of prose that do not lack in poetic leanings. Both his poetry and prose have been regarded as honest and genuine, emphatic with a display of social acuity. He is considered a follower of truth\u2014on both the subjects of love and death\u2014and a writer of a younger generation who asks questions that many others dare not.<\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tBrita Melts has written a longer article in Keel ja Kirjandus<\/em> (6\/2013) about the literary home world of Kasemaa\u2019s debut collection.<\/span>\n<\/p>\n
