Grondwerk

Grondwerk [Groundwork] (2025) explores climate change, collective action and attempts to make the world habitable in poetic and sensory language. In the novel, a naked mole-rat is sent on a mission from her colony in the Horn of Africa to a square in Brussels. Waiting for a briefing that fails to arrive, she observes the curious ways of the homo sapiens and starts digging tunnels in Brussels’ underbelly. As sinkholes grow all over the city – fragmenting the infrastructure of the political heart of Europe – a meeting and growing friendship with a climate activist produces an unexpected twist. Grondwerk was shortlisted for the Boekenbon Literatuurprijs and very positively reviewed in the Belgian and Dutch press.
