Book promotion

Our local bookshop had a promotion of a new book of  dutch crime writer Loes den Hollander. This lady is not the writer but an actress who made a funny act to add some humor to the promotion.

She had a very loud vulgar voice and made all kind of strange questions to the writer. Some people didn't understand right away it was all fake and watched the scene a bit uncomfortable which was very funny too.

  1. Speaking into what looks like a toilet bowl cleaner is amusing.

  4. I think it would have been more nervewracking for her Marianne, must be really hard to make people laugh :)

  5. I did not notice her microphone at first. If she came up to me with it I'd tell her to get that out from my face. "You know where that thing's been ?!!" :))

    She was very smart for getting 100% ATTENTION this way!

  7. when we just arrived in boston i really wanted an afwasborstel, but i couldnt find one anywhere. finally we did, but it was a quite expensive one, and actually when using it i didnt like it. only later (like weeks later) i realized we were using a toilet bowl cleaner for the dishes....

  8. Sometimes these events can be too earnest, so I would have loved to see this!

  9. Well, nobody would purposely have hair like that so people should get the humor. It's a good way to promote a new book.
