Nachtwandeling

Kevin Toma

In Nachtwandeling, Toma explores his fascination with vacancy. His obsession with what has been left behind. At the center are the dilapidated beach pavilion from the 1962 American horror classic Carnival of Souls, and Toma's own nighttime sojourn in an old, run-down movie theater. What connects such places? And how can they settle into your imagination forever?

Kevin Toma is a writer and film journalist who has written numerous reviews and articles for the Volkskrant, among other publications. With Nachtwandeling he makes his literary debut. Playful and exciting, the text seeks the middle ground between prose, film essayism and personal observations.
