• Dimitri Verhulst Het leven gezien van beneden

  Toen de Rus Michael Sjolochov in 1965 de Nobelprijs voor Literatuur ophaalde was dat om verschillende redenen een mop. De kwaliteit van zijn werk was ondermaats en het was een publiek geheim dat hij zijn boeken niet zelf schreef. Sjolochov was een marionet van het Sovjetregime, een toonbeeld van de (verplichte) socialistisch-realistische stijl, omringd door een apparaat van ghostwriters.

  Yn dizze boartlike en satiryske novelle reizget Meindert Bylsma mei it jonkje dat er ea wie troch falstrikken en hinderlagen yn it libben. Boartlik en blomryk fertelt er oer it gefaar fan klisjeemieningen, sjabloonoardielen, fan monotinken en hierargysk machtsmisbrûk. Sa komt er der efter dat it in poepetoer wurde sil foar sa'n lyts mantsje, dy't op de startline stiet, mei de hurddraversskuon al oan, om in keardel te wurden. Bron: Flaptekst, uitgeversinformatie
