Writer Marion Bloem will receive this year’s Constantijn Huygens Prize (12,000 euros) for her novels, stories and poems. “Not only the recent and monumental Indo from 2020, which everyone who is interested in the theme of identity should read, is personal, original, compelling and written with a great social commitment. From the first book, this applies to her entire oeuvre,” according to the jury of the responsible Jan Campert Foundation.
