Gijs Wilbrink liked Geoffrey van Zonneveld 's review of De beesten: "'Dit is het verhaal van de oude veronachtzaamde ziel die achterbleef.Dit is niet het verhaal van de inwoonster, de tuberculoselijdster of zelfs de verongelukte die vermist raakte.' De verhalen die we vertellen over anderen, vertellen het meest over on" Read more of this review »

Quotes by Gijs Wilbrink (?)

“Een dichte damp stijgt op vanuit de IJssel, het hult de rivierbrug in een gordijn van mist. De stalen reling is niet te onderscheiden van het kleurloze vergezicht, de oever en de weiden aan de overkant zijn nauwelijks te zien. De enige tint die het panorama van deze winterdag enigszins doorbreekt is die van het diepgrijze water dat koppig onder de brug doorstroomt. Het wordt snel donker nu, het zal niet lang meer duren voordat ook de laatste kleine nuanceverschillen van het landschap opgeslokt worden door het avondzwart.”
― Gijs Wilbrink, De beesten
