„Eesti loodus“ on matk mööda mu elu tuttavaid ja armsaid paiku. Mõni neist on koduks olnud päriselt, mõni vaid unistustes. Aga kus sa ka ei elaks – maal, metsas, mere ääres või fantaasiates –, igal pool elab su kõrval veel olendeid. Linde ja loomi, lilli ja inimesigi. Igal pool on omad taevad ja tuuled. Ja omad hääled. Kõigepealt olidki hääled, hääl: samanimeline saatesari Klassikaraadios. Kirjutasin neid raadiolugusid edasi ja lisaks otsisin jutule pildid juurde – ja nii saigi see isemoodi aruanne ühest rännakust, mis on kestnud juba päris palju aastaid. Tõnu Õnnepalu

An Estonian author and poet who also writes as Emil Tode and Anton Nigov. Õnnepalu was born in Tallinn and studied biology at the University of Tartu from 1980 to 1985. He began his writing career as a poet in 1985 and has published three collections of his works. In 1993 he garnered international attention when his novel Piiririik (English translation: "Border State") was published under his pen name 'Emil Tode'. The book was translated into 14 languages and became the most translated Estonian book of the 1990s. That year, he received the annual literary award given by the Baltic Assembly. Õnnepalu's work often explores topics such as homosexuality, isolation and betrayal. In 1992, his poem "Inquiétude du Fini" was performed as a choral piece, with notable Estonian composer Erkki-Sven Tüür acting as conductor. In addition to writing novels, Tõnu Õnnepalu has translated works into Estonian from the French language by such authors as François Mauriac, Charles Baudelaire and Marcel Proust and has written for such English language publications as the Poetry Society.
