Description:

With imagination and empathy, Frans Budé knows how to unravel the secrets behind existence

In Zoveel dichtbij (So Much Closeness), Frans Budé brings forward the unknown of a mostly invisible world in an extremely visual and empathetic way. Realms that may or may not really exist: the poet travels there without moving a single foot. In his rich imagination, he moves just as easily to the life of trees and insects as to that of ravaged islanders or a child who gets lost in a marl cave. The fragility of existence becomes palpable.
