Jantine

A Dutch short story with a girls’ name

Yesterday I published my short story Jantine on the Dutch blog Hard//Hoofd. The illustration was made by Dutch artist Lune van der Meulen, and I think it captures the awkwardness of the story perfectly!

The introduction reads: ‘The first high school love affair, the first kiss, de first break-up: everybody has vivid memories of these life altering events. But do those memories stroke with reality? A short story by Bart Kuipers.’

A translation will be available soon! Until then, you can read the Dutch version on Hard//Hoofd.
