Arnon Grunberg

The last time I saw him

Rain

“Amante” came to visit me for two days in Dublin.
Because of the rain she suggested we should paint. (Another time she convinced me that we should buy clay and make a small statue.)
In the late nineties I painted quite a lot under the influence of Pablo van Dijk, a fairly beautiful con man who disappeared out of my life as con men tend to do. (The last time I saw him the booze and his beauty seemed to be competitors; the booze was winning.)
