Welcome Home Amsterdam / Talia Stone

From the daily dance of the herons at Albert Cuyp Market to the sisterly myth behind the iconic Skinny Bridge, how well do you know the Dutch capital?

Welcome Home Amsterdam is a unique collection of short stories celebrating the city – its past, its present and its people. Through interwoven fictional lives, this book offers a genuine feel of the real Amsterdam. Some of her most famous features are brought to life alongside everyday scenes of family and friendship, of cycling, fishing and swimming, capturing the authentic culture of the capital today through stories of humanity and connection.

It is no coincidence that water streams through these stories, threading them together, although the characters themselves are unaware that they are connected.
