Summary "Mijnheer Snepvangers" by Lode Baekelmans is a novel set in the late 19th century. The story revolves around the life of Mijnheer Snepvangers and his wife, Madame Snepvangers, who transition from their humble beginnings as servants to becoming proprietors of a grocery store. The narrative explores their aspirations, the challenges they face, and their eventual shift towards a more affluent lifestyle, along with their growing family. The opening of the narrative introduces us to the couple, who have spent years working for Notaris Boeykens before deciding to start their own grocery business, the "Zoutkeet." After several years of hard work and frugality, they find success and begin to adapt to their new identity as small business owners. As the story unfolds, we witness their life development, the birth of their daughter Marieken, and their aspirations for stability and comfort. However, with the newfound prosperity comes the pressure of societal expectations and personal ambitions, leading to further complexities in their lives. This evokes a sense of intrigue about their future encounters and the evolving dynamics within their family. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
