"Een aardige tijd geleden werd deze me aangeraden door Stefan. Een tijdje later heb ik hem gevonden voor een appel en een ei bij een tweedehands boekenzaak in Maastricht. Nu eindelijk eraan begonnen. Sterke inleiding, erg nieuwsgierig naar de rest ☺️" — Jan 18, 2026 04:42PM

“W H. Auden once suggested that to understand your own country you need to have lived in at least two others.
