On Saturday 22 August 2026 from 14:00-16:00 CET, Rozalie Hirs’s poetry collection vragen naar het begin is the subject of a new edition of Het betere werk, Poëziecentrum Nederland’s series exploring notable poetry collections. The event takes place at the Public Library, Mariënburg 29, Nijmegen, and is hosted by Wim van Til. Rozalie Hirs is present to take part in the discussion.
Each edition of Het betere werk focuses on a poetry collection that has attracted particular attention or sparked interest in the literary world. Together, participants explore the collection’s themes and individual poems, gaining fresh insights and a deeper appreciation of the work. The series is held on the third Saturday afternoon of each month.
