-Italo Calvino, "Cities and Desire"

Insomniac artist Léon Spilliaert wandered Ostend at night, finding in its empty streets and endless beaches the exterior equivalent of his inner isolation.
At school, he studied Nietzsche and Schopenhauer and began to read the claustrophobic stories of Edgar Allan Poe.
