Măi, fetelor (It’s Both Heaven and Hell Here. Moldova: a Century of Lived History)

There are few places across Europe which have had the tumultuous story of Moldova in the 20th and 21st centuries. My greatgrandmother, for instance, spent most of her life in the same village while living in four different countries: she was born in the Russian Empire, went to school in Romania, resisted collectivisation and eventually gave in during the Soviet era, and got retired in the independent Republic of Moldova. I share her story in this book, as well as stories of other people with different backgrounds I interviewed, in an effort to create a polyphonic view of Moldova’s recent history. Chronologically, the book starts with the 1903 infamous Chisinau pogrom and it ends with the 2022 refugee crisis caused by the full-scale invasion of Ukraine. Geographically, the stories are rooted in Moldova but they cover the whole world thanks to the processes of migration that characterised all of the communities described in this book — Jewish, Roma, Armenian, Moldovan, Ukrainian, Russian etc. — at different points during history.

De beesten

‘Ik wil niet veel zeggen, maar volgens mij ging het al mis met Tom Keller toen die twee ooms hem ’s nachts meenamen naar het bos en hem dingen lieten doen die een jongen van negen nog lang niet zou moeten doen.’ Zo begint De beesten, het romandebuut van Gijs Wilbrink. Het speelt zich af in de Achterhoek, te midden van motoren, stropers, nertsenfokkerijen en handeltjes die het daglicht niet kunnen verdragen. In dit mystieke grensland vol geheimen groeit Tom Keller op, jongste telg van de beruchtste familie van de streek, en gezegend met een van God gegeven talent voor de motocross. Als hij jaren later plotseling verdwijnt, komt zijn opstandige dochter terug naar haar geboortegrond om hem te zoeken, met een dramatische familiereünie tot gevolg.
