poetry.

The prose fragments appear like figments of the mind. While they are often beautiful, this mind is wandering. And this wandering mind often dwells on islands, and lonely places where it meets nature.

It never becomes entirely clear whether Dezelfde maan is a poetic representation of depression, or a book born out of depression. Nonetheless, the book is pensive, but not really sad, and therefore beautiful and readable to a wide audience.
