Over mij
From a very early age I've been fascinated by everything that had words printed on them. I could read before I went to school - thank you older brother for your help and your comics. We had almost no books in our home, so my first reading was confined to the comics of my brother and the newspaper - which, this being the cold war, put a lot of fear in a small boy. At the age of nine I did discover such a thing as a library existed - Thank you mrs Rusman for encouraging me and helping me getting a card for this wonderful institute.
Without books I probably would have become a builder or a worker in some factory, like most of my family. In stead I became what some would call an intellectual, still a rare bird in my family. There is no way for me to know if reading has made my life bettter or worse - but it would have been entirely different.
Tsutsik is an alias as you might have guessed, a character in the book I read when I met my wife, and which I still enourmously love (both of them).
