This book gripped me and ripped me right from the prologue. Well, let me tell you when people say don’t judge a book by its cover (or timeframe for that matter), it couldn’t be truer for Nine Minutes. Though, I have to admit, I was a bit apprehensive about the timeframe because I prefer contemporary books. I suppose it has the 70s vibe of the book timeframe, but it just doesn’t appeal to me.īut I’ve been seeing buzz around this book so my curiosity piqued and after reading the synopsis, I knew it’s the kind of story that I would like. If I see the cover in a lineup of new/recommended list, I would not pick it up. I’m going to start by being completely honest. ![]()

This English edition is not a simple translation of the original Dutch (second edition 1921, first 1919), but the result of a work of adaptation, reduction and consolidation under the author's directions. The significance, not of the artists alone, but also of theologians, poets, chroniclers, princes and statesmen, could be best appreciated by considering them, not as the harbingers of a coming culture, but as perfecting and concluding the old. ![]() Now the common feature of the various manifestations of civilization of that epoch proved to be inherent rather in that which links them to the past than in the germs which they contain of the future. Such a view of them presented itself to the author of this volume, whilst endeavouring to arrive at a genuine understanding of the art of the brothers Van Eyck and their contemporaries, that is to say, to grasp its meaning by seeing it in connection with the entire life of their times.
