Biography
Biography
After high school he attended the Vrije Universiteit Brussel but did not finish and became a journalist and a teacher. Finally, he became a full-time writer. He spent most of his life in the countryside of Flanders. Together with his second wife, Rotraut Kerzinger, he had two children: Jessica and Thomas. He made his debut as a writer with romantic poetry in 1959 with Het woud van licht en lommer (E: The forest of light and shadow). His first novel, Jij, een meermin? (E: You, a mermaid?), is characterized by personal considerations and thoughts, and he is considered to be an autobiographical author, inspired by personal experiences.
