Proeftijd (Novitiate)

Seven young writers. And seven typical Eindhoven companies. What happens when you combine them? When you hire literary talents? And let them loose in a new workplace? Drop them at the coffee machine? Taking the director for a walk? Let them wander in Eindhoven? Then you get seven unique experiences. And seven short stories. which are collected in this book.

This short story collection builds a bridge within the Brabant landscape. Two growing fields are connected to each other. The innovative business community and young literary talent. Tilt was looking for creative companies and enthusiastic authors to work together. To get to know each other better. And to learn from each other.

Onias Landveld, Sandro van der Leeuw, Frederike Luijten, Sholeh Rezazadeh, Vere Verheecke, Eline van Wieren and Anneke van Wolfswinkel went into temporary employment with Philips, Municipality of Eindhoven, Diederendirrix, ASML, Van Abbemuseum, Muziekgebouw Eindhoven and High Tech Campus.
