Hommage à Jo Mottiez
Jo Mottiez is a teacher of French Literature and a passionate collector of old books. Jo is amongst the few people who had a big impact on my life. Before attending his courses the usefulness of school wasn’t entirely clear to me. Jo managed to captivate me in his classes and passed on his bug for the great authors. He literally turned on my appetite for knowledge.
