The Remembered Soldier, de vertaling van De herinnerde soldaat wordt verfilmd voor Netflix. Dat maakte de Amerikaanse uitgever van Anjet Daanje, New Vessel Press, bekend op Instagram.

A movie of THE REMEMBERED SOLDIER is in the works from Netflix, to be written and directed by Remarkably Bright Creatures director Olivia Newman. The Hollywood Reporter announced the movie deal after a bidding war for the prize-winning novel by Anjet Daanje, translated from the Dutch by David McKay for New Vessel Press, that it said “became a literary darling” as a finalist for the National Book Award and longlisted for the International Booker Prize. A riveting historical work about a shell-shocked veteran in the aftermath of World War I, THE REMEMBERED SOLDIER was named one of New York Times’ 100 Notable Books of 2025, Wall Street Journal’s 10 Best Books of 2025, and one of Publishers Weekly 2025 Best Books of the Year, among other accolades. The novel was also awarded the 2026 Republic of Consciousness Prize. “Themes of identity, memory, and the fragility of self are woven into a love story built on longing and the aching human need to be known,” writes The Hollywood Reporter.
