van Essen:Hier wohnen auch Menschen

It doesn't always have to be time travelers - even with completely ordinary people, Rob van Essen discovers the unique when he confronts them with absurd situations. It's no coincidence that he, who has also been honored as a novelist with the highest award in the Netherlands, is considered the best short story writer in the country. Van Essen's particular strength lies in creating realistic settings where you can immediately sense that something is about to happen.
