In Brussels, literary history is everywhere you look. Countless writers, from Belgium and abroad, have drawn inspiration from this amazing city and given it a place or voice in their work. Follow city guide Jan Dorpmans for a walk with text fragments and anecdotes through places with a special story.

Brussels has seen many a writer come ... and go. Some of them were, or became, (world) famous. Starting at the main entrance to Bozar, how can we not mention Charlotte and Emily Brontë, or Charlotte's favourite, Thackeray? Up the hill, in or around the park, we find Sir Walter Scott, Lord Byron, Robert Louis Stevenson, Ouida, James Fenimore Cooper, Joseph Conrad and more contemporary writers like Teju Cole. To name but a few.
