Stanny A Still Life

In 'Stanny, a silent life' Erik Vlaminck once again shows the true face of Flanders. He tells the story of Stanny, a boy who witnesses how his native village has to make way for the port of Antwerp. After his forced move he falls victim to the cruelty of his new classmates. And at home he has little to expect from his terminally ill mother and father who has little contact with others. It leads to a youth that casts an increasingly dark shadow over the rest of his life. 'Stanny, a silent life' is part of Erik Vlaminck's novel cycle about the twentieth-century face of Flanders. The entire cycle consists of six books.
