Self-Portrait of an Other : Dreams of the Island and the Old City, Paperback / softback Book

Self-Portrait of an Other : Dreams of the Island and the Old City Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

Cees Nooteboom, best known for his novel The Following Story,is one of the most distinguished and significant authors living in the Netherlands today.

Self-Portrait of an Other is one of the most unique and innovative works in his oeuvre.

Written in response to and published together with a series of drawings by the Berlin-based artist Max Neumann, the book draws on Nooteboom's personal reflections--his arsenal of memories, dreams, fantasies, landscapes, stories and nightmares--and presents a set of prose poems that complements and echoes Neumann's work.

Full of striking scenes and disturbing images, the poems, driven by the logic of dreams, create the self-portrait of the title.
