Hello everyone 👋
I am going to Amsterdam tomorrow and planning to visit some bookshops. It is tradition of mine to buy books from that country's literature.
So I'd love to have some recommendations of Dutch literature, translated to English (also independent bookshop are also appreciated).
It can be from any period, but I prefer literary fiction or sci-fi.

The Captain, by Jan de Hartog. He was born in the Netherlands but he wrote it in English after he had moved to the US. It’s a wonderful book; I loved it as a kid and then read it again as an adult and still loved it (sometimes that doesn’t happen).
