Marga Claus was born in Leeuwarden and moved to Oosterend as a child. Her debut novel was published in 2000. It was based on the true life story of a Ukrainian refugee who arrived in the Netherlands via Afghanistan. Her latest novel, Libbe (2024), is partly based on her father’s life. The book deals with aging, transience, and letting go, and the special bond between a father and daughter.
