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 tributes are 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.Published by Augias Records
