Geen spiegel kan je behoeden = No mirror can guard you

Selection of texts by Nickel van Duijvenboden. "When I was twenty, I decided to keep a record of the occurences I believed would leave a mark on me. I wrote them down in as few words as possible and preferably on the same day, in an attempt to preserve them from the distortions of memory. This accumulated naturally into a compact archive of incidents in which self-consciousness repeatedly wedges itself into everyday reality."
