And now,
i
t’s time to thank a lot of people. First
of all, my sister Marije for reading the first draft of this story
and crying at the end. She even called me a bitch, if I recall
correctly (maybe you did, too, because of the way things ended). I
realize I may have upset some people, but I really couldn’t have
ended this story any other way. This was the way it was supposed to
end.
Second of
all, my Dutch editor Marije Kok and my American editor Alexis
Arendt for
thoroughly going through the
Dutch and English manuscripts. Thank you so much for your hard work
and dedication!
I would also
like to thank my father for free
ly
translating my German poem into English, Daniil Charms for writing
such incredible poetry (the poem used in the book was freely
translated from the Russian original by me and partly adapted from
the translation by Matvei Yankelevich), and the Ebner family in
Birkensiedlung, Salzburg for renting out a room to me back in
1998-99 when I studied there. I used to live on the same street as
Julia and Thorsten
Last but not least, a big thank-you to all
the bloggers who reviewed my book and helped me by promoting my
work – I couldn’t do this without you!
As for the music in this book: if you want to
listen to the songs Julia and Thorsten wrote, you can go here:
Until next time!
Best wishes,
Jen Minkman.
