‘Versatile’ is an understatement when it comes to Simon Vestdijk (1898-1971) and his literary talent.
This is stunning when one takes into account that Vestdijk was also a doctor and furthermore severely depressive for several months each year.
His novels (which won him the most fame) are realistic but also include subtle symbols and allusions to metaphysical problems.

So now the late Anthony Powell is in the absurd situation that four of his novels have been translated twice into Dutch, while none of the other eight have been translated at all into that language.
But these two gents had the misfortune to write in a "language of no great importance" from a British point of view, and thus only a very few of their works remain extant in Britain, and those on the shelves of a handful of university libraries.
There is also non-fiction by Simone de Beauvoir, Helen Langdon, Brian Greene, Claudine Monteil, and Sebastian Haffner translated from English, French, or German, respectively, plus a few paperbacks per month over the next year including works by Elizabeth George, Herbjørg Wassmo, and Nuala O'Faolain.
