Middle Generation – Golden Era

49,00 

AROE is a St. Petersburg based writer who might be most famous for his flowy and vivid new york based style, executed on walls and trains. With Middle Generation – Golden Era he combined a monographic approach on his own writing career since the early 2000s with a rich historic part on the origins and important figures of writing in his hometown.

Each of the six main Block chapters opens with an explanatory introduction on what the reader will experience on the next pages. Although the main regional focus is St. Petersburg the several places and cities he visited within the last two decades play and important role as well as his writing companions which he introduces in small texts.

While many monographs lack of true insight into the thoughts and personality of a writer it is absolutely refreshing to follow AROE through the different chapters of his career and book in many small articles. Locations you can find in the content are St. Petersburg, Berlin, Moscow, Tallinn, Budapest, Helsinki, Paris, Vilnius, Amsterdam, Copenhagen, Malmö, Brussels, Hamburg, Warsaw, Rome, Milan, Barcelona, Kyiv, and many more.
