"Daanje . . . is currently the Netherlands’ most celebrated writer. Her achievement is to bring us so close to her characters, and for so long an exposure, that they seem emotionally naked, utterly human in their desires and deceptions. In its dangerous admixture of truth and lies and reassembled reality, 'The Remembered Soldier' develops an unforgettable picture of marital love."
