Flemish meat

Flemish Meat is the sometimes grotesque and often sad daily history of people who, in a world ruled by computers, cell phones and the Internet, become successful caricatures of themselves and always end up as perishable portions of meat.

Place of the event: a provincial town on the Dender where most factories were closed and the cafes stay open long. The face of Flanders with 12 figures who are intertwined like a human rat king and each try to survive in their own way. With the colours and the shouting from Rwanda, Bosnia and Algeria far in the background. Or homo homini lupus.
Vlaams Vlees is the prose debut of one of our most important poets. Willie Verhegghe (1947) is affiliated with the WVC department, Literature and Theatre Service in Brussels. He published, among others, De Vlaamse Guerilleros (introduced by Louis-Paul Boon, 1971), Kommunikatie met het landschap , (letters with Simon Vinkenoog, 1979), Woud van Wielen (1991) Marcinelle (1995) and De Ronde van Vlaanderen (1996) and has received numerous literary prizes.
