Estonia: A Ramble Through the Periphery by Alexander Theroux (August 17)

From his musings on Hamlet to his thoughts on the TV show Married..with Children, Alexander Theroux covers pop culture, literature, and high art while he takes us on a rambling tour of this tiny Baltic country. Theroux examines Estonia’s language and customs in order to get a larger view of a land which holds a population of less than two million. As he states, “Seeing Estonia — disrobing her — was my focus.”
