Piece Appertaining To Books Nooit meer slapen

Gezellig om thuis te blijvenBeyond Sleep is a novel of the Dutchman Abroad, a genre not without charm but perhaps an acquired taste. Its moral is typical of the genre: Gezellig om thuis te blijven, It's probably best not to leave the front garden. It was written in 1966 but remained untranslated into English for forty years. This delay makes it even more of a period piece, expressing some of the most important self-criticisms of Dutch society of the time at an effective and safe distance. Beyond

Willem Frederik Hermans is yet another excellent foreign writer it has taken anglo-sphere publishers too long to translate. Written over half a century ago, Beyond Sleep is set in a world before GPS and widespread communications, when it was all too easy to get lost. Hermans depiction of the sheer physicality of tramping across arctic tundra, under relentless attack from mosquitoes and flies, with a heavy pack, inappropriate footwear and faulty equipment is harrowing. The constant daylight

A Dutch classic, not really into it. The protagonist is needy for a character thats supposed to be over 20...

Oh wow, this was really really boring.I was kind of ashamed that I hadn't read a Dutch book this year, but also in general, I read very little books that are published in the Netherlands. So I found a list made by a big Dutch newspaper with the 10 best Dutch books ever. I had only read one book on that list and that was Het huis van de moskee and I really liked that one plus the list contained some other well known books that you "have to read", so I thought; let's try to read the books on this



how strange that this book has made such an impression on me; the topic is not among my interests, there is not much going on and the protagonist is a bit of an insecure, self-centred idiot - still the descriptions of the norwegian landscape, the highly philosophical conversations between the characters and in general hermans' style create a strangely gripping if desolate atmosphere.

Strangely, this wasn't a brilliant read for me. And I say strange, 'cause Hermans is my favorite writer of all time and his themes are never changing (which is my favorite part of his approach). But this title didn't do for me what (for instance) 'De donkere kamer van Damokles', 'Au Pair' and 'Uit talloos veel miljoenen' did. Maybe my expectations were to high. Say that if I read "De donkere kamer" before 'Nooit meer slapen', my opinion of "De donkere kamer" would be different. I don't know...
