Nirwana

The twins Hugo and Willem Adema could not be more different. One is a celebrated artist, while the other runs the multimillion-dollar offshore empire built by their grandfather. But who was this grandfather, who first fought on the German side and then joined the resistance? When his long-lost diaries resurface, it soon becomes clear that for everyone, it’s about much more than just the past. "Nirvana" is a vivid generational novel about the ongoing intertwining of economics and fascism, the rise of the new right, and the question of the power and impotence of art. "Nirvana" is one of those books that you read more slowly towards the end because you don’t want it to finish.
