In this episode, Dr. Rachel Gillett is joined by Dr. Agnes Andeweg and students Maren Smith and Amanda Annemans to discuss One Book, One Campus - an annual reading event at Utrecht University which aims to broaden our understanding of the world, our communities, and ourselves through sharing a good book. This conversation delves into how One Book, One Campus was started, and what the process of selecting a book each year looks like. A large focus in this conversation is this year’s selection: We Slaves of Suriname, the 1934 book by Anton de Kom, providing a scathing history of three centuries of Dutch colonial rule.

Dr. Agnes Andeweg is an associate professor of literature at University College Utrecht, as well as the project leader for One Book, One Campus. She specializes in modern Dutch literature, gothic fiction (1800-present), Dutch cultural history and memory, with a focus on gender, sexuality and national identity.
