M.m.v. Hans Groenewegen en Rozalie Hirs.

Na het succes van de integrale lezingen van de dichtbundels Klem van Kees Ouwens en De weg naar Egypte van Gertrude Starink, brengen Hans Groenewegen en Rozalie Hirs in de reeks Dichters lezen dichters werk van Hans Faverey.

Op deze avond confronteren Hirs en Groenewegen de vroege Faverey met de late. Ze lezen Favereys laatste bundel Het ontbrokene (1990) samen met de twee eerste Gedichten 1 (1968) en Gedichten 2 (1972). Het zelfstandig naamwoord 'Stilstand' is het eerste woord van het oeuvre, het werkwoord 'bijstaan' het laatste. De spanning tussen die beide, fixeren en in beweging brengen willen de dichters in hun lezing ervaarbaar maken. Zij worden daarin bijgestaan door dichter/componist Samuel Vriezen.

Opyr is the Ukrainian word for vampire. Joan means hyperactive bon vivant. Opyr's hobbies are politics, politics, and politics, though, for the sake of variation, she has been known occasionally to dance the polka...
