Summary
Cees Nooteboom: 533 days
Is what is seen or what is seen more important, and how is it recorded? Between August 1, 2014 and January 15, 2016, Cees Nooteboom decided to observe his garden in his diary, to begin with. But the secret life of cacti and turtles, flowers and plants around his house on the beloved island of Menorca is just the beginning of the journey for one of the world's most significant contemporary authors. Nooteboom's view and thought - what he looks, sees and writes down day after day - unfailingly lead us to intimate landscapes of rare beauty, to a deeper experience of a world where music meets botany, philosophy meets geography, and literature meets history. Inspired by Voltaire's call to cultivate one's garden, Cees Nooteboom's 533 Days is a glorious eulogy of wisdom, calmness, and slowness, a book we need today more than ever. Eternally curious and playful, the spirit of its author once again confirms that for the greatest of writers, the garden is the same as the world, and the world is the same as the garden.
