Dutch vignettes Rob Kievit

This is not a travel guide. Nor is it a history book. Dutch Vignettes takes you on nine tiny trips through The Netherlands. You will briefly meet Mr. Sing, a little Great Tit, a lady with plastic ears, an architect who designed for demolition, and many others. Playful tribute is paid to institutions like the HEMA stores and Pete Myers (and the author's parents-in-law, if you know where to look). Rob Kievit (1956) wrote news reports, poetry and syllabuses. This is his first collection of short stories.
