\n\t
Gregor Elm (born 25. August 1978) is a writer and poet.<\/span><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tHe has mostly held jobs related to seafaring. From 1997, Elm worked as an ordinary seaman on ocean-going ships, later as a deck officer on passenger ships. He has studied at Kymenlaakso University of Applied Sciences to become a sea captain. Elm has been captain of Lahesuu and Nasva harbours, but he has also studied at Tallinn Law Institute of the University of Tartu and cultural anthropology at the Institute of Theology of the Estonian Evangelical Lutheran Church. Gregor Elm has been a member of the Estonian Writers\u2019 Union from 2014.<\/span><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tGregor Elm has published three prose books: the collection of short stories Kahel jalal kahevahel<\/em> (\u2018On Two Feet in Two Minds\u2019, 2002), the story Valmis nagu redis<\/em> (\u2018Ready as a Radish\u2019, 2005), the novel Karvane metseesel<\/em> (\u2018Hairy Wild Donkey\u2019, 2014) and several poetry collections. The characteristic feature of 24-year-old Gregor Elm\u2019s first book, the prose collection Kahel jalal kahevahel<\/em>, was tender poetics. Valmis nagu redis<\/em>, the sequel to his first book, continued reflecting the moods of the moment, sometimes tending towards surrealism. In Elm\u2019s novel Karvane metseesel<\/em>, the author\u2019s semi-autobiographical narrative mingles with the protagonist\u2019s or protagonists\u2019 viewpoints. Critics have called Karvane metseesel<\/em> a punk or fantasy novel.<\/span><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tIn his later creation, Elm has continued the shrew game with absurd humour, self-irony, sometimes with sarcasm.<\/span><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n
