De Roze KruisigingReeks
Deze serie duikt in de diepe en vaak ongemakkelijke waarheden van het menselijk bestaan, kunst en vrijheid. Het verkent de levens en werken van belangrijke, zij het controversiële, literaire figuren, en ontrafelt hun innerlijke strijd en creatieve processen. De teksten zijn doordrenkt van filosofische reflecties en een strijd voor artistieke onafhankelijkheid.
