Maurits de Bruijn

Conscience is a personal account of the interconnected histories of the Palestinian people and his own history as a Jewish Dutchman and descendant of a family torn apart by the Holocaust. The first half of the book explores his own experiences and thoughts about Israel and Zionism, and the second half charts his dangerous journey to Israel and Gaza where he witnesses IDF patrols, terrorism, colonists and expulsions and the lack of human rights afforded to Palestinians. His tears are no help and his grandparents would have been horrified. How can this reality be reconciled with the discourse back home?In this accessibly-written book about one of the most degrading disasters of the 21st century, De Bruijn weaves the different threads into a story that can be read as an appeal to the reader not to hide behind ignorance. He offers no clear-cut solutions but a moral judgement: Israel’s political course is ‘a sacrilegious road that much be condemned and challenged’. It is searing personal reckoning with identity, history, and the cost of silence.<ul><li>Bestselling title: 8,500 copies sold</li><li>A Jewish LGBTQ writer confronts his own moral crisis</li><li>Proceeds from the book are being donated to a Palestine food agency</li><li>Boekenbon Prize longlist</li></ul>

Maurits de Bruijn writes because he has to – out of conscience, out of love, out of responsibility. Beautiful, personal, moving.

'Conscience' is a profound, multifaceted story that stirs up more than just hearts and hateful reactions, about one of the most degrading disasters of the 21st century.

Stella Rieck

Geweten: Over Israël en Palestina

Part travelogue, part moral memoir, this isn’t just another book explaining the conflict in the Middle East, but the personal quest of an Amsterdammer whose grandparents were murdered in Sobibor. In late 2024, De Bruijn received an invitation from an NGO fighting against the oppression of Palestinians to join a delegation of other activists to observe and write about the occupation on the ground. He hesitated, he’d vowed never to visit Israel again after the events of 7th October 2023. A sense of duty prevails, and he decides to ‘look the beast in the mouth.’

Conscience: On Israel and Palestine

Eva Meijer

Mice are highly social animals and have an extensive language, which makes use of sound, posture, gestures and scent. They have habits and even make plans. Meijer was struck by how well they take care of each other, especially when one is sick. This care continues after death. The mice greet and wash the body of their dead friends and bury them under a pile of papers or nesting material. Science, on the other hand, considers mice convenient experiment material: sexually mature at ten weeks and able to birth offspring in just nineteen days.Many scientific articles have been written about lab mice, but they are rarely actually about the mice themselves. They describe what the research teaches us about human diseases, human emotions, human neurology and other human matters. Our propensity for anthropocentric thought places humans at the centre of society, marginalizing other creatures, organisms and things. Meijer argues, however on the basis of her study, that we need to move towards a different political system based on justice and freedom in order to co-exist with human and non-human beings.  <ul><li>By an acclaimed animal rights philosopher who has already been translated into 20 languages</li><li>Winner of the 2025 Nature Book Prize</li><li>Compact at just 160 pages</li><li>Includes charming pictures of the mice taken by the author, illustrations and verses</li></ul>

The Life of Mice describes beautifully the social behaviour of the mice Eva Meijer shared her home with (…) and provides a good introduction to decentring humans in our way of thinking, as well as the philosophy of animal rights. […] A book truly worth reading with the same open mind and curiosity that Meijer has towards the mice.

The Life of Mice is a revelation! Eva Meijer raises serious questions about the animal testing industry.

How living with rescue mice leads to a broader ethical enquiry into animal rights

Muizenleven

In 2020, Eva Meijer started adopting laboratory mice from Utrecht University via a rodent rescue project. For three years, the writer took care of twenty-five mice at home while convalescing from Long Covid. Observing the way they clean each other, compulsively tidy up, run in the wheel, make escape attempts, and approach nest-building as a quasi-artform, Meijer came to know them as fully-fledged individuals with their own personalities. Soon Flankie, Bram, Wezel, Bullie and companions were making a deep impact on their human observer.

The Life of Mice

Clarice Gargard

For Gargard, change is about imagining an alternative future, crafting new narratives, caring for the planet and daring to hold up a mirror to ourselves. ‘You don’t lay siege to empire by appealing to its sense of morality,’ she writes. ‘You lay siege to empire by becoming more human and asking others to do the same.’ The road to change can be a difficult one, and knowing how to care for and love ourselves and each other is essential. Gargard writes from experience, recounting moments of pain, exhaustion and hard-won success, as a Black woman in the public eye.  Gargard was born in the United States to Liberian parents. After having to flee from the Liberian civil wars at four years old, she ended growing up between the Netherlands and the United States. Her global and diverse education and upbringing have added to her unique perspective on society and the challenges we face today. She argues we have more power than we think and provides advice on how to, for example, organize within our communities and why it’s important to let love guide our activism.Toxic systems can’t be upheld if we choose to stop upholding them within ourselves – at work, at school, in public and our personal lives. Gargard pulls from renowned thinkers like James Baldwin, bell hooks, Octavia Butler, Arundhati Roy, Carl Jung and Ama Ata Aidoo. But also from Sufi and indigenous African practices to offer insight on how more authentic living can lead to an inner and outer (r)evolution. While looking at global injustice it seems like things are getting worse and can’t improve; Gargard reminds us that change is a gradual process, and each generation brings us a little closer to the freedom we desire. The old world is dying because a new one is looming on the horizon. <ul><li>Highly anticipated in the Netherlands</li><li>A more practical guide to change making and activism, including the work of countless artists, writers, thinkers and indigenous groups  </li><li>Full English text available </li></ul>

Owing to her sharp style, the book exudes urgency and strength. It is, after all, the result of the hard lessons Gargard learned from her extraordinary past… From Resistance to (R)evolution can also be read as a manual for activists, written by someone with first-hand experience.

Clarice writes with a similar unyielding passion I’ve witnessed in her activism throughout the years. A courageous being writing courageously. Clarice doesn’t just reflect a world only meant for the brave, she invites us to imagine bringing about a revolution even when we are scared to do so. Clarice reminds us that there is space for each of us in this paradigm shift and it’s beautiful to read.

Sometimes you read something that is soft and radical at the same time. That shakes you up but also comforts. This book is about (r)evolution, our place in nature and about love. Not just for those who call themselves activists. But especially for those who doubt and are afraid. A rich and courageous book. Chapeau.

One of the Netherlands’ most prominent voices on enacting change

Martijn Prins

‘What can I do?’ It’s a question millions of people are asking themselves as the world burns. For years journalist, documentary maker and community organizer Clarice Gargard has wrestled with how to best fight systemic injustice and oppression. In this book, based on her research, experiences and inspirations, she lays out ten paths that we can walk towards a personal and societal (r)evolution.

From Resistance to (R)evolution: Ten Roads Towards a New World

Sinan Çankaya

According to Çankaya, he touched on what may be the last Western taboo: the Holocaust and how that suffering has been turned into a political tool. As a writer from a Muslim background, his position was even more thorny. Discomfort around the subject wasn’t just limited to his dealings with the publisher, it also played out in talk shows, at university, and in journalism. And on top of it all, due to his ethnicity, he wasn’t ‘allowed’ to be angry. In the end, Çankaya decided to comply with his editor’s wishes, but in doing so he made use of his own back story to map out his disillusionment with the system.  Çankaya explores the mechanisms that bar him from writing about the Palestinian genocide. He explores the links between anti-Semitism, Islamophobia and World War II, and the colonial roots of Zionism. The crux, as he sees it, is that the suffering of the Holocaust is being turned into a political tool, not out of empathy for Jewish victims but because Western complicity during the war still weighs heavily on the conscience. Echoes of History is an intelligent account of adaptation and integration, code switching and class betrayal. It is about not being able to escape an immigrant legacy and remaining an outsider in the literary and academic worlds. But above all, it about which deaths we remember, and which stories we bury.<ul><li>Bestselling title: 25,000 copies sold</li><li>Hard-hitting topic: what it means for a person of colour to navigate white institutions.

Çankaya is known for his sharp, critical contributions to debates around racism, identity and integration.

A thought-provoking essay on who is allowed to speak and who is silenced

Marijke Nagtegaal

Galmende Geschiedenissen

Çankaya’s bestselling book begins with an awkward conversation with his publisher, De Bezige Bij. A successful media figure and university lecturer, he was commissioned to write about transcending his immigrant background. But driven by anger over the genocide in Gaza, he penned an indictment of Western support for Israel instead. This didn’t go down so well.

Echoes of History

Autumn Selection 2025

Jacqueline Klooster

Why is this and why is it happening now? And what can we learn from it about antiquity and ourselves? As she explores various mythological characters and their modern transformations, Jacqueline Klooster invites readers to look into an often surprising mirror. Besides reflections on different ways of retelling and the motives of the revisionists, she places the new stories in context, and compares and contrasts them with earlier adaptations and with the originals themselves, revealing her personal fascinations along the way.Helen, Medusa, Antigone, Medea, Persephone are treated, but also male figures such as Achilles and Apollo. Klooster examines works by well-known literary authors like Toni Morrison, Marguerite Yourcenar and Margaret Atwood, but also more popular books (think Fifty Shades of Grey and the Percy Jackson series), Tiktok trends (Medusa tattoos) and films (Barbie, Gone Girl, Troy). ‘Reading is rewriting,’ she claims. ‘Every story potentially contains gaps, questions, perspectives that remain undeveloped, invitations to think, feel and invent further.’ This essential guide decodes why Medusa has become a #MeToo icon and Persephone a romance heroine – and what it means for literature and society.<ul><li>Revisionist retellings of classical myths are a strong trend in books, films/series and musicals. On fan fiction sites like Archive of our own thousands of fan writers lend classical figures new guises and create new plots</li><li>The definitive analysis of one of culture’s hottest trends: why classical myths are being rewritten by and for women, and how these stories reveal our deepest contemporary anxieties about power, identity, and voice.</li><li>A blend of scholarly expertise with accessible, personal writing, for fans of Nathalie Haynes, Stephen Fry and Hadestown.</li></ul>

‘It is truly impressive how many new, predominantly female, often rebellious variations on classical themes Klooster has collected and analyses.’

‘The book is cleverly written and interesting for many since it’s not at all pedantic, while there is something to be learned by everyone. […] After reading Medusa in the Mirror, you’ll have a whole list of novels and classic texts you want to read.’

A scintillating exploration of mythological figures and their modern reinventions

Medusa in de spiegel: Wat mythen ons vertellen over wie we zijn

Myths are purportedly timeless; they contain universal meanings, which is one of the reasons they still appeal to us. But the opposite is also true: myths are extremely time-bound. Any storyteller can appropriate them and adapt them for their own purposes. In recent years, there has been a huge turnaround in how mythical figures are presented: popular films and novels about them are everywhere. Feminist retellings, created as a counterculture phenomenon, are so successful that they’ve almost become a cliché.

Medusa in the Mirror: What Myths Tell Us About Who We Are

Reinier Kooiman

Kooiman takes us back to thirteenth-century Italy, where newly-independent city states like Bologna, Siena and Perugia first sought the fairest way to tax their citizens. Their eventual system, based on each citizen’s means, was a source of civic pride. These original ideals were, however, steadily forgotten with the industrial revolution and Adam Smith, who favoured manufacturers and merchants. The widespread destruction caused by the Second World War might have temporarily reversed the transfer of wealth from poor to rich, but since the 1970s when Thatcher and Reagan dismantled the welfare state, our tax systems have rather helped increase wealth inequality.As long as the tax system favours wealth over work, Kooiman argues, inequality will continue to grow. Fortunately, the solution doesn’t require a dismantling of capitalism, or the state – simply a fairer tax system that returns to simple principles and distributes wealth from the rich to the poor. Ultimately, he proposes a single tax on wealth, and demonstrates why it is feasible and why it will work. It’s time for those who own the world to help bear the burden.<ul><li>Argues for reclaiming the tax system as a democratic good we should all have a say in</li><li>Tax havens and capital flight, it turns out, are nothing new, with the church being tax exempt early on</li><li>Historical context for fans of Thomas Piketty and Garry Stevenson</li></ul>

The reason the book is a pleasure to read is that Kooiman builds up his book so exquisitely with historical insights.

A groundbreaking book...

A fascinating historical argument for making taxes simpler and fairer

Hayo Deinum

De sterkste schouders. Wat de geschiedenis ons leert over (on)eerlijke belastingen

Cicero famously called taxes the ‘sinews of the state’, essential to the government’s functioning. We’ve nevertheless reached a point where hardly anyone, politicians included, understands our byzantine tax systems. Isn’t there a better way? For tax specialist Reinier Kooiman, a democratic discussion about taxes doesn’t have to be complicated. We can understand the principles behind tax law if we understand how they were invented and where they went wrong.

The Strongest Shoulders: What History Teaches Us about (Un)equal Taxes

Janna Coomans

The most commonly stolen items were humdrum: food or cooking pots, building materials, work equipment, clothing and coins. Hunger was a common motive. Houses were meagrely and functionally furnished without knickknacks, so a wool coat or a tin chamber pot was a prized possession. The heavy punishments for theft which included beheading, hanging and being burned to death, show just how important household objects were at the time.Vignettes include a husband and wife stealing herrings from a barrel, a goldsmith seducing a miller’s wife with a stolen book, a medieval Bonnie &amp; Clyde gatecrashing a wedding, and a servant eating his stepfather’s sheep. The stories are colourful and entertaining. How would one even go about stealing a herd of pigs? Or some bees? The accounts give insights into different lifestyles, like that of a marauding serial murderer, a member of a robber’s gang marking doors with a secret code, or a man sleeping in barns who grew attached to a small black cow.  Coomans compares the old world she describes to life today and draws from it lessons on how we can better function as a society and rethink our relationship to material possessions.<ul><li>2025 Libris History Prize shortlist, 2025 Boekenbon Literary Prize longlist</li></ul><ul><li>Outstanding research is made tangible to the reader using details from well-known engravings and paintings from the period</li></ul><ul><li>Comparable to Emmanuel Le Roy’s Montaillou and Francis Pryor’s Britain in the Middle Ages</li></ul>

Those medieval folks weren’t actually that medieval: there was hardly any torture, beheadings or racks, as Janna Coomans demonstrates in Land of Thieves, penned with obvious pleasure.

Juicy and colourful […] The historian paints a vivid picture of the exploits of both small-time and major medieval crooks, thanks to excellent detective work in 500-600 year-old criminal registers, lists of court verdicts, and thieves’ confessions in real finds with titles like the liber filorium perdicionis – The Book of Lost Sons'

Brilliantly-researched, groundbreaking reconstruction of daily life in the fifteenth century

Dievenland

Drawing on newly-unearthed criminal registers, court records, and city archives, Coomans paints a vivid picture of the lives of commoners in the late Middle Ages. Her research is uniquely centred around thieves: 158 of them, arrested and tried between 1470 and 1510 in the Low Countries (present-day Netherlands, Belgium and Luxembourg). Most of these criminals were men, only six were women, all of them confessed in surprising detail to their crimes.

Land of Thieves: Survival in the Middle Ages

Petra Couvée

Critic, children&#039;s book author, translator, memoirist and author of a three-volume diary, Korney Chukovsky was at the heart of Russian literary life for decades and knew practically everyone important in twentieth-century Russian literature and art, from Maxim Gorky and Ilya Repin, to Anna Akhmatova, Vladimir Mayakovsky and Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn.  He lived under two tsars and four volatile Soviet leaders, surviving revolutions—he reported the mutiny on the Potemkin—famines, Stalin’s terror, evacuation, defamation, and national vilification. After years of self-sacrifice and bitter poverty, he was finally rewarded with a dacha, a chauffeur-driven car, and the highest state literary honors. He was a survival artist, never arrested or exiled – though the same couldn’t be said of those close to him. Chukovsky had a large family and his son-in-law was arrested and murdered. While earlier publications inevitably came back to haunt him whenever the political winds turned, he escaped the brutal punishments inflicted upon more than a thousand other writers including Isaac Babel and Boris Pilnyak. In the end, the Chukovsky family’s eventful life – with imprisonments, favours and systematic opposition from high authorities, loss of loved ones – forces us to nuance our view of the dichotomy between loyalists and dissidents, good writers and bad.  <ul><li>On a subject that is playing out again in the present – history is repeating itself</li><li>A portrait of Russia’s Dr Seuss</li><li>By the author of the internationally acclaimed The Zhivago Affair (Pantheon Books/Vintage)</li><li>For readers of Frank Westerman’s Engineers of the Soul and Michiel Krielaars’ The Sound of Utopia</li></ul>

A world opened for me when I read Petra Couvée’s The Days Burn Like Paper… Couvée shows, like no other, how as an artist you were forced to live during the Stalin terror.

It’s clear that very meticulous and thorough research was carried out… It’s partly thanks to Couvée’s pleasant, even entertaining style that you want to know everything about the family’s balancing act from start to finish.

An alternative history of the twentieth century in Russia, based on censure and literary power politics

De dagen branden als papier. De eeuw van de familie Tsjoekovski

The illegitimate son of a Jewish student and his Ukrainian housekeeper, Korney Chukovsky was born in the Russian Empire in 1882. By the time of his death in the Soviet Union in 1969, he’d sold 82 million books, translated into 64 languages. Writing under authoritarian rule was, however, often nearly impossible. Through his family’s story, Petra Couvée paints a brilliant portrait of Russia’s twentieth century.

The Days Burn Like Paper: The Century of the Chukovsky Family

Erik de Lange

While privateering – state-sanctioned piracy – was common practice throughout Europe and beyond, European powers agreed to end the practice with Napoleon’s defeat. Trade needed to flourish, and with time, the continuation of the practice by the Babary Coast’s regencies of Algiers, Tripoli and Tunis and the Sultanate of Morocco came to be seen as barbarism and thievery – to say little of Europe’s outstanding debts to the region’s rulers. What followed was military repression and diplomatic intimidation, but also one of Europe’s first cooperative projects, which would spawn an early forerunner of NATO.Giving history a human face, De Lange focusses on the lived experience of people of the time and the ideas that drove them, the negotiations and contradictions, the foiled ambitions and unforeseen consequences. He takes readers through bombardments, disastrous naval battles, brittle alliances and the most important colonial invasion of the nineteenth century, when France sacked Algiers with a fleet of a hundred ships, the large majority from other European nations. He demonstrates how the European powers, though encouraged by ideas like civilizing missions or the desire for colonies, were above all driven by one thing: security.<ul><li>On how fighting piracy became a pretext for colonizing North Africa</li><li>Topical: the power imbalance imposed by Europe at the time continues to this day</li><li>Written by an exciting younger historian</li></ul>

For centuries, privateering was a legitimate part of naval warfare – until the young kingdom of the Netherlands put a stop to it, writes Erik de Lange in his delightful history book.

It combines adventure, politics, economics and people’s stories into a compelling whole that also invites one to reflect.

An immersive historical work on European security and the colonization of North Africa

Lotte de Boer

De Laatste Dagen van Barbarije: Hoe piraterij verdween van de Middellandse Zee

Until 1815, Europeans sailing the Mediterranean Sea ran the risk of being captured and sold into slavery by North African corsairs. Historian Erik de Lange recounts how, with Napoleon’s defeat, the European powers came together for the first time to address a common threat. This new policy of international security in Europe, however, would ultimately mean devastating imperialism in North Africa. The Mediterranean Sea would change forever.

The Last Days of Barbary: How Piracy Disappeared from the Mediterranean Sea

Ulbe Bosma

Born into a poor family in Prussia during the Napoleonic Wars, Junghuhn developed a love of mycology and botany early on, rebelled against family and religion, was imprisoned as a student for duelling, escaped, joined the French Foreign Legion in Algeria, and travelled as a physician to colonial Indonesia where he fell in love with Java’s flora, fauna and geology.  He became instrumental in the island’s production of kina bark, used to treat malaria. Time and again, however, Junghuhn’s volcanic personality would bring him into conflict with the colonial government, academic colleagues and friends.While Junghuhn was a man of action, Bosma paints a careful psychological portrait. He positions the polymath, and his significance within the international scientific community, in a time when romantic science (in the tradition of Goethe, Schelling and Novalis) was falling out of favour. Junghuhn’s work nevertheless won him the admiration of his idol Alexander von Humboldt, and his groundbreaking magnum opus, Java, Its Shape, Cladding and Internal Structure, remains a foundational text in Southeast Asian volcanology, botany, and geography. In the end, liver disease would cut short Junghuhn’s boundless ambition, and Bosma explores his paradoxical role as both critic and agent of the colonial system.<ul><li>From the author of The World of Sugar (Harvard University Press, 2023), translated into 10 languages</li><li>Irresistible biography that reads like an adventure novel</li><li>Specimens collected by Franz Junghuhn are still cared for in herbaria across the world</li></ul>

‘Bosma’s clear, energetic, and overwhelming biography is more than just a depiction of a hyperactive life in science. It is also an adventure novel.'

‘Ulbe Bosma’s book is more than a biography. […] It is a valuable and enriching contribution to the understanding and legacy of this often-underappreciated, remarkable polymath.’

On the unlikely, adventurous life of the ‘Humboldt of Java’

Leven op een vulkaan. Franz Junghuhn, een biografie

These days the Prussian-Dutch scientist Franz Junghuhn (1809-1864) is mostly known for his role in the Netherlands’ free thought movement. But he was so much more: an explorer, anthropologist, surveyor, physician, geographer, geologist, writer and botanist – and obsessed with Java’s many volcanos. In this irresistible biography, historian Ulbe Bosma recounts Junghuhn’s unlikely, adventurous life, restoring his legacy within today’s debates on science, ecology and colonial history.

Living on a Volcano: Franz Junghuhn: A Biography

Daaf Borren

Africa has been called ‘the continent of the future’. Its population will grow tremendously over the coming decades and, with an average age of around twenty, young people are overrepresented. The generation gap with Europe, where the average age is more than twice that, is enormous. Europe is ageing, its labour force is shrinking. In other words: the ‘old continent’ is ageing, while the young continent is coming of age.Borren reflects on themes like climate change and makes its consequences tangible for the reader: ‘Marlene has never flown in a plane, but sees the coast crumbling before her eyes. Lazarus has no car, but may soon have no home either. An uncertain future holds their lives in a stranglehold, partly caused by large-scale consumers like me.’The book is also a reflection on colonialism and its modern forms. China’s influence today (in Kenya, for instance) is much more subtle than European colonialism of the past. It is a question of soft power, which is perhaps even more dangerous. Borren’s travels through the country as a journalist and correspondent form the connecting thread. He zooms in on different characters in each chapter, young Africans who show us another side of the continent and sometimes almost seem like they’ve been taken from a novel.<ul><li>Repurposes the travel genre to share the stories of Africa’s Gen Y and Gen Z</li><li>The UN projects that Africa’s population will more than double by 2070</li><li>A unique travelogue through 16 countries</li></ul>

So enthusiastic, so thorough. It’s like really going on a journey with him, you meet these people together. That’s the power of this book. And Daaf Borren can write incredibly well.

A penetrating portrait of a continent we all too often see as a caricature. Borren undertakes his journalism as a person with much to learn, looking further and listening harder.

From Mali and Congo to Ethiopia and Mauritania – a journey across thousands of kilometres and into the future

Het continent van de toekomst: jongeren over Afrika

Western media has a one-sided image of Africa, mostly coloured by a colonial perspective. African people in their twenties and thirties today have their own ideas about how to shape the future on their terms, not ours. Daaf Borren travelled across the continent and became fascinated by the stories of these new generations.
