Life

Park was born Eeva Hint in 1950. She is the daughter of writers Aadu Hint and Minni Nurme. After high school she worked as a silk and porcelain painter, and as an archival assistant. She began her career in 1983 as a poet, but soon turned to prose. Her 1993 novel Tolm ja Tuul describes in a fairly obvious way the breakup of his parent's marriage.[1] She is known for her novels' dark undertones, but she has also written plays and short stories, as well as continuing to write poetry. Park has been a member of the Estonian Writers' Union since 1993. In 1994 she received the Friedebert Tuglas Literature Prize. She currently lives in Saku Parish.
