\n\tMudlum <\/span>(given name Made Luiga, b. 31. VII 1966) is a prose writer and literary critic. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tShe was born in P\u00e4rnu, educated in P\u00e4rnu, Paide and Tallinn, at the Estonian Institute of the Humanities and graduated from the Estonian Academy of Arts in 2012. She has been a member of the Estonian Writers\u2019 Union since 2017. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tThe beginning of Mudlum\u2019s literary career is associated with the ZA\/UM cultural grouping, on whose blog she began posting texts. The short story Minu t\u00e4di Ellen<\/i> (\u2018My Aunt Ellen\u2019) appeared in Vikerkaar<\/i> in 2012, and her debut collection T\u00f5sine inimene <\/i>(\u2018A Serious Person\u2019) in 2014. She often uses memory as material, mixing layers of memory and detailed descriptions of interiors and things into a story where there is no action in the foreground, only a scene, an existence. Characters often appear through the description of space. A striking example of this is the portrait of the author\u2019s aunt Ellen, once the spouse of [the poet] Juhan Smuul, of whom she speaks, in addition to the story in Vikerkaar<\/i>, also in the novel Mitte ainult minu t\u00e4di Ellen <\/i>(\u2018Not Only My Aunt Ellen\u2019, 2020). Through the pictures from memory and descriptions of objects, expressed in the first person by the author, emerges the story of a solitary woman (going mad). Through the imagery of objects and spaces, generalisations about a generation and the world take shape, also in the collection Ilus Elviira <\/i>(\u2018Beautiful Elviira\u2019, 2015). The novel Poola poisid <\/i>(\u2018The Polish Boys\u2019, 2019), which depicts the world of the young, is the story of a generation, inspired by the ZA\/UM grouping, placed in a Polish context.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tMudlum\u2019s criticism and essays are collected in \u00dcmberjutustaja <\/i>(\u2018The Reteller\u2019, 2017). <\/i> <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tShe has won the Friedebert Tuglas short story prize for the story Ilma alguseta, ilma l\u00f5puta<\/i> (\u2018Without a Beginning, Without an End\u2019) from the collection Linnu silmad <\/i>(\u2018Bird\u2019s Eyes\u2019, 2016); in 2019 she won a \u2018Live and shine\u2019 stipend as well as the Literature Endowment annual award for Poola poisid, <\/i>which also won the European Union literature prize in 2020.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n
