This copy was signed by Theo van Gogh (1957-2004) with a blue ballpoint pen on the first page, beneath the typical dedication: "Voor de heetste buurvrouw van".
¶ Theo (related to the painter Vincent van Gogh) never hid his opinions—as he also did not in this book. On November 2, 2004, the controversial filmmaker was murdered for this reason by the Muslim extremist Mohammed B. This is an original manuscript by one of the most prominent advocates of freedom of expression from the late 20th and early 21st centuries.
