Al voor de Tweede Wereldoorlog scheidden zijn ouders en verhuisde zijn moeder naar Amsterdam. Zijn moeder emigreerde naar Amerika, terwijl hij in Nederland achterbleef en zijn schrijversdebuut maakte. In 1946 schreef Mulisch zijn eerste verhaal, ‘De kamer', dat een jaar later in Elseviers Weekblad gepubliceerd werd. <a href="https://www.last.fm/music/Har

Harry Kurt Victor Mulisch ( Dutch pronunciation: [ˈɦɑri ˈmulɪɕ]; 29 July 1927 – 30 October 2010) was a Dutch writer. He wrote more than 80 novels, plays, essays, poems, and philosophical reflections. Mulisch's works have been translated into 38 languages so far.
Along with Willem Frederik Hermans and Gerard Reve, Mulisch is considered one of the "Great Three" (De Grote Drie) of Dutch postwar literature. His novel The Assault (1982) was adapted into a film that won both a Golden Globe and an Academy Award. Mulisch's work is also popular among the country's public: a 2007 poll of NRC Handelsblad readers voted his novel The Discovery of Heaven (1992) the greatest Dutch book ever written. He was regularly mentioned as a possible future Nobel laureate. He won the 2007 International Nonino Prize in Italy.
