Leo Vroman
One of my favorite writers and poets is Leo Vroman. Even now in his middle 90's he writes and makes jokes as usual. He is also a famous biologist in the USA, where he and his wife Tineke (whom is a character in many of his books). My favorite book so far: "Het carnarium". But now he has published his biography which as many ingredients to make it a sure winner. E.g. Vroman fled as a Jew the Netherlands before WWII to the Dutch Indies only to fall into the hands of the Japanese a little bit later...
