There used to be a zoo in the middle of the city. Nowadays, the presence of the animals can only be traced back to the streets that have been named after them. But they continue to live on in the imagination of the city’s inhabitants. It seems that we need the zebra’s and the lions, the elephants and the sleeping tigers in our busy and goal-oriented adult lives. Or, at the very least, we need the stories about them. Because they show us a side of life that we often tend to overlook.

Sleeping Tigers opens up a world to the reader where after every door lies a room filled with stories and mysteries. At least, if you are ready to look at the world in a new and playful way.
