Anyway, no need for dutch books here. I like how Mulisch isn't available online, and I don't want to know, or learn, that I'm wrong in this 
Apropos of nothing: Apparently these are what the public calls (or are being told by the book shops to be) "scientific" works. It's startling to see.
Anyway, I want lots of different translations of Notes from Underground available digitally.
At the moment, the only one I can find is the (1970s) Jesse Coulson translation, and it's still fairly expensive too, even though Penguin has recently dumped that one in favor of a new translation by Ronald Wilks.

There are other writers than Mulish! I was more thinking about the children book writers (of old...): Thea Beckman, Evert Hartman, Jan Terlouw, Annie M.G. Schmidt, Tonke Dragt, to mention a few...
Most Dutch literature I don't care about at all...
