I do remember a fascinating lecture, in September 1982, by an American lady who translated the children's poems of Annie M.G. Schmidt. But I couldn't remember her name and it had been bugging me for years. However, long live Goodreads, as it turned out it was Henrietta Ten Harmsel!
There is only one Dutch author I've met so far: Simone van der Vlugt, so I've added three of her books. However, I'm hoping to attend a lecture by the Dutch-Iranian author Kader Abdolah in October, which is why, although a bit prematurely no doubt, I've added some of his books as well. His work has been translated into several languages (The House of the Mosque and The King: A Novel just being two examples).
I also remember a friend of mine meeting Malcolm Bradbury, during our years at university, but as I never met him myself, I won't be adding any of his books, even though I do own a copy of Eating People Is Wrong :-)
@Sidney
Cute theme for a list, by the way :-)
