Martijn Reintjes reviewed Beter wordt het niet by Caroline de Gruyter
Review of 'Beter wordt het niet' on 'Goodreads'
5 stars
They say history doesn't repeat itself but it sure rhymes.
That would make this book one big poem about the European Union and the Habsburg Empire.
It's amazing how much parallels there are and how big of an impact the Hapsburg Empire had on European history (and apparently still has). Equally amazing why I wasn't thought anything about it in my history classes in the Netherlands.
(oeps, nu heb ik een review over een Nederlandstalig boek in het Engels geschreven, sorry!)
