The magazine offers traditional literary perspectives, but also shades of a more experimental nature. In addition to contemporary writing, it also highlights key authors of the 20th century whose work deserves renewed attention in an international context. EstLit offers readers poetry, prose, essays, reviews, interviews, and more, accompanied by Estonian art.
The magazine stands for artistic freedom and provides space for perspectives that oppose authoritarianism in all its forms. The magazine is intended for international readers, literary translators, cultural critics, and anyone interested in approaching Estonian literature from fresh and unexpected angles.
