Simone van der Vlugt is an acclaimed Dutch author, well known for her young adult novels. The reunion was her debut novel for adults, it sold over 200,000 copies and was translated into German, French and English.
An okay book for a short story, although the outcome was very strange compared to all that was told before. It reminded me of why I dislike short stories: too little pages to really build a story and the lead it towards thecending.
