¶ In addition to songs, poems and stories, the Dutch poet / singer Willem Wilmink (1936-2003) also wrote many essays about literature, as a Dutch scholar and as an enthusiast. If you put all those pieces together in a literary-historical order, you almost have a real literary history. And that is exactly what Guus Middag has now done.
