The jam dealers are unanimously impressed by “this literary gem that excels through the poetic simplicity with which Marieke de Maré tells about five lives, about looking and silence, about how we all wear our backpack, about holding and letting go, about life itself.”
De Maré made his debut in 2020 with ‘Bult’, which was received praise and nominated for the Confituur Boekhandel Prize 2021. She is also a city poet of Bruges.
