In this volume Paul Vincent presents a compelling collection of
prose fiction, memoirs and anecdotes centring on Amsterdam from the
seventeenth to the twenty-first century. His selection offers a
rare insight into the history and culture of the city. The subjects
range from Rembrandt to the persecution of the Jews in World War 2,
from barricades in a working-class district during the Depression
to a writer's unhealthy obsession with a massage parlour. These
eighteen newly-translated tales give the reader, and the traveller,
a tantalizing glimpse of the Amsterdam that lies beyond the tourist
guidebooks.
