F. Springer Book order

F. Springer, the pseudonym of Carel Jan Schneider, was a Dutch diplomat and writer whose work draws heavily on his extensive experience living and working in diverse global locations. His laconic style, often imbued with an ironic perspective on tragic subject matter, is reminiscent of literary figures like F. Scott Fitzgerald or Graham Greene. A central theme in his writing is the concept of 'tempo doeloe,' a specific nostalgia for life in the former Dutch East Indies. Through his narratives, Springer masterfully captures the essence of these varied settings and the complex emotions they evoke.
