Edgy, mesmerising, darkly ironical: this one-of-a kind novel tells the story of ten evenings in the life of Frits van Egters - a disillusioned young man, walking the streets of post-war Amsterdam. The young protagonist's aimlessness and ennui belie the extraordinary wit and beauty of this powerful piece of outsider fiction, which has been voted one of the greatest novels of all time by Dutch readers.
