Kris Van Steenberge

Kris Van Steenberge (b. 1963) made his debut in 2013 with the novel Woesten, which was inspired by the author’s grandfather’s stories about the Great War. This prize-winning book was immediately greeted with wild enthusiasm, from the press and from the general public, in the Netherlands and in Flanders. Blindly, Van Steenberge’s second novel, is a humane, poignant tale of beauty and decay, deeds and dreams, the chosen and the damned.
