Publisher's Synopsis

'Another year and I still don't like old people. Me? I am 83 years old.' Hendrik Groen may be old, but he is far from dead and isn't planning to be buried any time soon. Technically speaking he is ... elderly. But surely there is more to life at his age than weak tea and potted geraniums? Hendrik sets out to write an expose: a year in the life of his care home in Amsterdam and his Old-But-Not Dead Club. When Eefji - the woman Hendrik has always longed for - moves in, he attempts to make something of the life he has left, with hilarious and devastating consequences.
