The Aftermath and the Aftermath's Aftermath of Dada in the Low Countries

A critical review of a book about Dada in the Low Countries. The positive thing for the English-speaking reader who wishes to find out about Dadaism in Flanders and the Netherlands is that this story – much of the material for which is in Dutch, German and French – has now been made accessible in English, although the final result is a rather ‘messy' book.
