'Papieren paradijs' van Marlies Medema vertelt het waargebeurde verhaal van een domineesvrouw die niet naar Suriname wil emigreren. Maar toch drijven de ambities van haar man, dominee Arend van den Brandhof, haar in 1845 de oceaan over. Hij gelooft dat het leven in Suriname beter is dan in Nederland, dat op dat moment zo goed als failliet is. In Suriname wil hij een plantage stichten, waar boeren op een eerlijke manier producten kunnen verbouwen voor de rest van de bevolking. Anna houdt van hun leven in Nederland en wil niet weg. Maar na jaren van voorbereiding en echtelijke ruzies is de emigratie uiteindelijk toch een feit.

Wanneer Anna en Arend met hun gezin en een paar honderd boeren in Suriname aankomen, wacht hun een grote teleurstelling. Het land van belofte blijkt een onherbergzame jungle. Hoe moet Anna hier een goed leven opbouwen voor haar gezin en zichzelf?

In dit indrukwekkende debuut vertelt Marlies Medema het indringende verhaal van een sterke vrouw die onder de meest moeilijke omstandigheden moet overleven en toch haar eigen waarden behoudt.

'Een prachtige, zintuiglijke roman over een onbekend stukje geschiedenis.' - Corien Oranje

Softer and Larger than Expected
I was a bit wary of this shirt because I had only purchased 100% cotton ones in the past. My first impression out of the package was how soft the material felt. I was very impressed because it usually takes many washings before oxford cloth shirts get that soft. When I put it on, I discovered that there was no noticeable difference made with the small amount of stretch fabric woven into the shirt. I suspect that there would be some give if I wore the shirt as a tight fit, but I prefer my shirts loose, so it wasn't an issue. I found that the shirt was larger than other same sized shirts I've received from Amazon in the past--bigger is better than smaller, but if you are looking for a close fit, you will want to be conservative in the size you order. I didn't realize until I'd been wearing it for a while that it lacks a pocket, I went to put my glasses in my shirt pocket and there wasn't one!

Looks great
I got this to make a memorial shirt for my grandmas funeral. I was worried it may be too hot but the fabric is thick and breathable. Easy to heat press on. Looks great! I actually want to buy another

Good fit, stays tucked.
A little long to wear untucked, but long enough to stay tucked through the work day.

Very small for the indicated size. Fairly thick, more like a Fall shirt than a Summer one
This is almost a 3 star shirt, but it has some drawbacks: 1. it is very short for it's size. I ordered an XX (2X) because I am not skinny. But I am not short either. This shirt would probably be tall enough for a very round 5ft tall man.. but if you are of average or slightly taller than average height you may find the torso length to be radically too small (unless you'r using this as a half-shirt for the gym or beach to show off those abs. :-D ... I am a bit more conservative in nature and so this shirt simply doesn't cut it. *so: if you have a VERY SHORT TORSO this may be a great option for you! :-) Thickness of fabric; the material is really thick. I was immediately getting warm when wearing this. It is advertised as a summer shirt but really it is more appropriate for Fall or Winter. Otherwise, the buttons seem durable, the stitching is adequate, and the price ain't bad. Lets call it 2.75 stars; recommended only on conditions indicated above.
