Mirror Boy
‘The story I want to tell needs time and space,’ Floortje Zwigtman said in an interview to mark the publication of 'Tegenspel' (Countermoves, 2007), the second part in her Dickensian trilogy ‘'Een groene bloem’ (A Green Flower). Fortunately, she allowed herself that time and space: 'Spiegeljongen' (Mirror Boy), the long-awaited 608-page final volume in the series, is now ready to be devoured.
