%X Five years after his suicide, Jeroen Mettes' collected poetry has been published. With this introductory essay are excerpts from Mettes' path-clearing N30. As Vriezen explains, Mettes read poetry for political reasons: to see whether poetry could offer a way to deal with a political world he detested. His poetry is an attempt to bridge the divide between critical theory and the practice of social life.
