Tammsaare, considered to be his most famous work, and one of the foundational works in Estonian literature. Tammsaare's social epic captured the evolution of Estonia from a province of the Russian Empire to an independent nation. It was based partly on the author's own life and centered on the contrast between the urban middle class and the hard-working peasantry.
