About us
Stranded at Schiphol airport, Ben Coates called up a friendly Dutch girl he'd met some months earlier. He stayed for dinner. Actually, he stayed for good.In the first book to consider the hidden heart and history of the Netherlands from a modern perspective, the author explores the length and breadth of his adopted homeland and discovers why one of the world's smallest countries is also so significant and so fascinating.
Join us to discuss this affectionate portrait of one of our nearest neighbours.
The event is free to attend and open to all - no booking required. If you don't have time to read the book, a summary will be available.
