Description:
'The gene of the soul', 'Fish in the bath', 'Winter sleep', 'Colour suffering', 'Pretending to pretend': put the titles of the essays in a row and you will get a first impression of the boundless interest and associative thinking capacity of Tijs Goldschmidt.

After the success of Angel's Balls, the inventor of 'vague thinking' comes up with a new collection of reflections on people and animals. 'The gap between man and animal is forced. I am annoyed by the fact that man is placed above animal by definition. The transition between man and animal is gradual. I think. But sometimes I change my mind.'

With his reflections, Goldschmidt wants to bridge the gap between the humanities, the sciences and the social sciences. 'I hope to be a connecting link, a missing link. I enjoy making people who are shocked by the name of a gene understand something they think is not for them.'
