Zeeland Book Prize 2008 This book is the English edition of the book "Donkere palissaden". A Resistible Force / When Man Meets The Sea, by the author and photographer Pauline van Lynden, is a lavishly illustrated book about a stunning site on the south-western coast of the Netherlands where endless lines of wooden pilings have graced the beaches since the Middle Ages. These ancient breakwaters, which inspired many artists before her, bear witness to a long history of trial and error in man's struggle to protect his land from erosion by the sea. Rediscovering places she had known since childhood, Van Lynden began by drawing and photographing them and ended up exploring 'what happens when an irresistible force meets an immovable object' and a culture marked by its relationship with the sea. A Resistible Force, with its wealth of documents from private and public collections, offers a surprising illustration of the Netherlands as a 'water land', but Van Lynden also tells a personal story of discovery. The quality of her photographs takes the reader on a visual journey into her own microcosm, leading us to look more closely at the beauty of our own familiar environment, and to reflect on the dynamic between man and his surroundings. In 2005, influenced by Van Lynden's interest, the Province of Zeeland placed the breakwaters on its list of cultural heritage. The book has been lauded by scientists, engineers, politicians and laymen alike, as an enlightening and enjoyable work on a subject first almost declared obsolete, but now seen as a possible example for other endangered coastlines in the world. It has received the Zeeland Book Prize 2008.
