This is the author's third volume which mainly centers on new memories of old lovers, his birthplace Haulerwijk, and his current residence, IJsselmonde, Rotterdam. Even death, which in recent years has crossed his path, is expressed here beautifully. In particular, the ode to the old pub boss Klaas Louwes is masterfully depicted. Finally, this book contains a number of short stories that really came out of the fullness of life. After Zwarte vriend, this is again a collection that will strike many readers in its simplicity and accessibility. Geert Koenen (1941) was born in Haulerwijk and moved in 1957 to Rotterdam. He studied in Rotterdam in the seventies. He has written poetry since 1970. He takes inspiration from the writings in his diary. Although time mercilessly steps forward, he finds it still exciting and inspiring to see people and things reveal themselves.
