Description:
A monumental journey through Baltic history and culture, in which we encounter well-known personalities and forgotten ones, and a disconcerting picture of Europe in the twentieth century.
From 1999 to 2010, Jan Brokken explored life stories in Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania. The result was his masterly Baltic Souls, available here for the first time in English. Brokken uncovered the stories of famous artists and writers such as Mark Rothko, Sergei Eisenstein, Hannah Arendt, and Jacques Lipchitz, who were all born in the regions bordering the Baltic Sea before leaving to build their work abroad, spreading a bit of the Baltic soul across Europe and America.
Less well known were the stories of people such as the Rozes and their family bookstore in Riga, or the von Wrangels, the ultimate descendants of the Baltic barons. Or the story of the titanic struggle that violist Gidon Kremer fought with his father in Riga, who was burdened by the death of thirty-five family members in concentration camps. Or the story of Loreta Asanaviciute, who was run over by a Russian tank in 1991.
It is this melancholy imbued with fatalism, this vitality forged by the upheavals of history, this appetite for reading, music, and art, that enriches the portraits painted by Jan Brokken.
Conducted in the style of a travel diary where chance encounters and biographical sketches mingle, Baltic Souls makes us feel the cruelty and violence of an era, but also the tenderness and solidarity of an entire people, united across borders.

Lower Quality than Competitors
Color: Black, Size: 8' Wide x 30" Tall
Construction is different from the Wall I brought from Children's Factory. Would recommend going there for a higher quality product and to save some money.

Well made… for children?
Color: Black, Size: 8' Wide x 30" Tall
This review is for the 30” tall one.
I’m honestly struggling to find a great use case for how short this is.
I don’t have children or am associated with any institution where they may be some.
I could see it being used for creating that type of sound barrier.
The panel itself is very well made. Looks and feels like an air wall that you’d see in a convention center.
I can absolutely tell there’s an acoustic absorption property to it.
The whole thing unrolls quickly and is fast to deploy.
As far as privacy goes, it’s kind of useless unless you are trying to wall in small children.
I can’t really say the value is all here for this. Seems quite a bit more expensive than it’s worth.
