Manouk Jacobs (SV Asterix): “David van den Bosch studied Celtic Languages and Culture at Utrecht University. He graduated in 2008 by writing a play about an 11th century Irish narrative, called The Sick-Bed of Cú Chulainn. Before that he studied drama therapy at the Hogeschool Utrecht. After finishing his BA in Celtic he started working as an actor and director for a number of theatre troupes. David has also worked in a number of bookstores and since December of 2020 he works at bookstore Roodbeen in Nijkerk.

Those who study Celtic may already know David as he is part of Dá Fhili, a storyteller duo. Furthermore, David does not just tell stories, he writes them too. He worked as one of Amersfoort’s city poets and he wrote a number of books in Dutch. His latest book came out in September and it is part of the Connla Quinn mysterie series, which now consists of four parts!
