Ed van der Elsken, just back from a stay of several years in Paris,
saw the work of Van der Keuken and encouraged him to publish it.
The publication was a success, five editions, but this selection of gloomy, smoking, artistic youngsters also received a lot of criticism in these years of reconstruction after the Second World War; Following the publication of Wij
zijn 17, Johan van der Keuken received a grant to study at the Film Academy in Paris. And the rest is history...
