The poetry collection foregrounds the urban environment; the city is also the focus of the books <em>Linn on minu: Tartu tahavaatepeeglis<\/em> (\u2018The City is Mine: Tartu in the Rearview Mirror\u2019, 2016) and <em>Minu Tartu<\/em> (\u2018My Tartu\u2019, 2019), which look at the city of the author\u2019s childhood and youth in the Soviet period. The author\u2019s journeys are mapped in the travel books <em>See ei ole minu Kuuba<\/em> (\u2018This is Not My Cuba\u2019, 2015) and <em>Maailma l\u00f5pus on kohvik<\/em> (\u2018At the End of the World There\u2019s a Caf\u00e9\u2019, (2018).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>R\u00e4pp has compiled the collection <em>Ajatu puudutus. 120 luuletust inimeseks olemisest<\/em> (\u2018Timeless Touch. 120 Poems About Being Human\u2019, 2023), which, in addition to texts by various authors, includes R\u00e4pp\u2019s own contemplative interludes.
