Willow Island

Publisher: Atlas Contact 

A moving and exciting novel from a proven master storyteller.

 

A boy who just moved wants to become the best poet in the country.

A canoer who plays Jezus falls in love with his neighbour.

A strange carpenter is making more and more grim paintings.
An adopted girl who wants to know who her father is.

Thirteen-year-old Natan wants to unravel the mystery surrounding the death of a hermit who lived on a houseboat in the Dutch peat lakes. The villagers are not at all keen on this, Old Zweiland keeps its ranks closed and the tower clock stubbornly indicates a quarter to five. Willow Island is an exciting whodunwhat, a novel about four
uprooted people trying to get a grip on themselves and the world through their artistry.
