I am a re-born Christian who has seen much of the world's misery. I am a young man who, apart from kidnapping, has already experienced everything. A young man who has moved 64 times and sees his house as a place to sleep. Having difficulty recognizing it as his home. Who speaks different languages and is qualified in 11 subjects. I'm a boy who can do a lot, but keeps me in the background because of embarrassment. And even though I always look for people around me, and often look for confirmat...

Gebruikmakend van inzichten uit deze velden, puttend uit ideeën van Parmenides, Spinoza, Goethe, Emerson, Nietzsche, Freud, Benjamin, Bergson, Deleuze, Spivak en vele anderen, stelt Jeroen Lutters dat creat...
