Posthumous book from JJ Voskuil
Monday 10 November 2008
Dutch writer Johannes Jacobus Voskuil, who died on May 1 2008, left behind an unpublished manuscript, says Monday's Volkskrant.
The book, Binnen de Huid (Under the Skin), is autobiographical and deals with the period between his student years and the writing of his famous novel Het Bureau, says the paper.
Het Bureau was published in seven parts between 1996 and 2000 and covered in minute detail his career at the Meertens Institute. The fourth volume won the Libris Literature Prize in 1998.
The new book will be published in April 2009.
