In a self-respecting dictatorship, the writer is the most dangerous man alive

Erick Overveen is a Dutch writer, filmmaker and cultural commentator whose work spans novels like Delirium?! and incisive essays on media and society. He writes with the precision of a critic and the timing of someone who knows culture is already strange enough on its own. In his first contribution to Unsafe Journal, he turns to the murdered filmmaker Theo van Gogh, cutting past cliché to examine what still burns.
