This copy is signed by Theo van Gogh (1957-2004) in blue marker pen on the title page (only his first name 'Theo') and the dedication: "For Dana / Theo's Drama". Van Gogh (indeed, family of the painter Vincent van Gogh), did not date the dedication, but it is most likely from the time of publication.
¶ Theo van Gogh never hid his opinion - as he also did not in this book. On November 2, 2004, the controversial filmmaker was murdered for that reason by the Muslim extremist Mohammed B. This is an original manuscript of one of the most prominent champions of freedom of expression from the late 20th and early 21st century.
