Omschrijving
In eight inimitable stories, Cees Nooteboom, one of the great modern novelists, meditates on love, loss and the shadow of death.
'Both wise and beautiful' John de Falbe, Literary Review.
'Exquisite toys for the broken-hearted' Jonathan Gibbs, Independent.
'Nooteboom is full of surprises and makes every word, every observation, not only count but also linger' Eileen Battersby, Irish Times.
'I much admired Cees Nooteboom's sharply melancholy stories' Julian Barnes, TLS Books of the Year.
'One of the most remarkable writers of our time' Alberto Manguel, Guardian.
'Poignant, wistful, and sometimes bitingly funny studies of memory, longing, regret, and a wry acceptance that this is what being alive is like' Independent on Sunday.
Cees Nooteboom was born in The Hague in 1933, and now lives in Amsterdam and on the island of Menorca. He is a poet and novelist who has been the recipient of numerous prestigious awards such as the Pegasus Prize and the Aristeion Prize for his novels, which include Rituals (1983), The Following Story (1994), and All Souls' Day (2001). His books of travel writing, Roads to Santiago (1997) and Roads to Berlin (2012) have become backlist classics. Ina Rilke is the prize-winning translator of books by Cees Nooteboom, W.F. Hermans, Tessa de Loo, Dai Sijie and Margriet de Moor.
