We are delighted to announce Herman Koch, who has been occupying the number one spot of the Dutch bestselling list for the past weeks, has agreed to write a piece for our online magazine.
Why do you write? is a wonderful almost surreal reflection on the perils of being a bestselling author. I must admit it is very exciting to bring this Dutch author to the attention of the English speaking pulic in our March magazine. Especially as the Dutch National Book Week (Boekenweek) takes place from 16 to 26 March 2011.
I hope you join us in our celebration of Dutch literature and enjoy reading Why do you write? or Waarom schrijft u?
