Bigger Than the Facts

Bag om Bigger Than the Facts

Jan Baeke, the award-winning Dutch poet, has, in Greater than the Facts (Groter dan de feiten, 2007), created an intriguing filmic world in which tensions are rife and nothing is quite as it seems. It is a world whose elements keep recurring, coalescing little by little into dreamlike leitmotifs ¿ a bus journey, a hotel room, dogs, cigarettes, fire, a blind man, a canary, a man and a woman in love. And love, however fragile it may be, is a major theme of this collection, for ¿where there¿s fire, there¿s warmth for twö. Antoinette Fawcett¿s poetically sensitive translation gives a clear sense of Baeke¿s style and poetic drive, and enables the English-speaking reader to explore in full this key collection in Baeke¿s ¿uvre.
