Leo Vroman
(The Netherlands, 1915 - 2014)
Leo Vroman is the ‘grand old man’ of Dutch poetry. He began writing poems well before World War Two and is still regarded as one of the most lively poets writing in Dutch. This liveliness has much to do with the form and tone of his work, at once loosely conversational and full of ingenious rhymes and playful neologisms.
