Auke Anthony Hulst (born May 20, 1975 in Hoogezand-Sappemeer, Groningen Province), is a Dutch novelist, journalist and musician. ==Biography== Hulst was raised in the hamlet of Denemarken (meaning: Denmark), in the north of the Netherlands. After a disorganized upbringing he studied audiovisual arts, Dutch literature and English at the University of Groningen. He did not finish any of these studies. From 1998 on Hulst has been working for a number of prominent Dutch and Belgian newspapers and magazines, like Vrij Nederland, Esquire, Knack Focus, NRC Handelsblad, De Groene Amsterdammer, and De Standaard. In 2006 he made his literary debut with the novel ''Jij en ik en alles daartussenin'' (translation: You and me and everything in between.) In 2007 he produced, together with cartoonist Raoul Deleo, a hybrid between literary non-fiction and graphic novel, called ''De eenzame snelweg'' (translation: The lonely highway). It's the impressionistic story of a cross-country trip the authors made, commemorating fifty years of ''On the Road'' by Jack Kerouac. The book was nominated for a stripschap-penning and the Prix Saint-Michel. In May 2009 Hulst publishes ''Wolfskleren'' (translation: Wolf's Clothes), a novel that coincides with a rock-album by Hulst's Sponsored by Prozac-project. Hulst also is one of the main drivers behind the Dutch-language band De Meisjes. In 2012 his semi-autobiographical novel ''Kinderen van het Ruige Land'' (translation: Children of the Savage Land) was published to both critical and commercial acclaim, winning several smaller literary awards. After his publisher Meulenhoff failed to submit the book for both the Libris and Gouden Boekenuil-awards, two of the most important literary accolades for Dutch writers, Hulst changed publishers. At Anthos he published the travel book ''Buitenwereld, binnenzee'' (2014, translation: Outside World, Inner Sea) and the novel ''Slaap zacht, Johnny Idaho'' (2015, trans: Sleep Tight, Johnny Idaho) Together with Wim Melis, curator of the Noorderlicht photo festival in Groningen, Hulst has created the photobook ''The Pursuit of Happiness'' (2009). As editor and essayist he co-created the Noorderlicht-publications ''Warzone'' (2010), which was about the war experiences of soldiers on international missions, and ''The Sweet and Sour Story of Sugar'' (2013). 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Auke Hulst」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
