Rachel’s Skirt (Rachels rokje)
As a girl Rachel Stottermaus never dared declare her love to Douglas D. When she bumps into him on the street thirty years later and lightning strikes again, she’s still unable to find the courage. By way of a declaration she decides to make a skirt. ‘Just wait; for you I’ll make a skirt without equal, with pleats that sweep from here to the equator and a swish-strength of at least wind-force eight, a skirt that will totally suck you along, wrap you up, a skirt you simply can’t get away from.’ Rachel’s Skirt is a personal universe of stories, memories, digressions and associations, all centred on a radical love.
