Daniel Robberechts Author

Daniel Robberechts (1937-1992) is best remembered for his two works of autobiographical fiction, each centered on a particular city, and now considered classics of Flemish literature: Arriving in Avignon and Writing Prague. At the time of his death, he was engaged in a nine-volume project investigating the manipulative mechanisms of language.
