KRUIMELDIEF
Online showcase
Hind & Zahra Eljadid
A disease is consuming the body of Hind and Fatima-Zahra Eljadid's mother. It is a slow and painful process of deterioration, and it comes on top of the fighting divorce from her aggressive ex-husband, and on top of fear and poverty. Kruimeldief is a poetic but raw elegy about motherly affection, saying goodbye, looking back and remembering. But also about white corridors, loveless sheets and ... sisterly love.
Hind Eljadid is an Antwerp-based word artist and writer. She won several awards for her performative word art and with her debut she writes a life down. With her critical thinking she is conquering the literary world word by word..
Fatima-Zahra Eljadid is an illustrator, painter and stop-motion animator from Antwerp. Since 2020, she has been an editorial member of the Comic Guide Flanders and a social-cultural worker at VOEM.

Being Imposed Upon is a timeless love letter and manual by and for black women. This book is a collection of reflections on being a woman and being black in Belgium. In the two national languages Dutch and French, we, black women, unite non-fiction essays, literary reflections, poetry, activist and academic texts around our search for freedom. This book is a tribute to our elderly, our heroes and our sisters.
