"Het leven van Rozeke van Dalen, deel 1" by Cyriel Buysse is a novel written in the early 20th century. The book explores the lives of rural workers in Belgium, focusing particularly on the relationship between Alfons and Rozeke, as well as the dynamics within their farming community. The narrative delves into themes of love, jealousy, and social struggle, set against the backdrop of a harsh agricultural lifestyle. The opening of the novel introduces Alfons, who awakens early in the morning to answer a call from his boss, farmer Kneuvels. As he prepares to meet Rozeke and her family for a day's work in the fields, his thoughts are consumed with feelings of affection and rivalry, particularly regarding Smul, the farmhand who also has eyes for Rozeke. Alfons struggles with his emotions, reminiscing about past encounters with her and his unresolved feelings of jealousy towards Smul. The scene sets the stage for a day filled with labor, interpersonal dynamics, and the beginning of Alfons's quest to express his love for Rozeke amidst the challenges posed by their social environment and the complexities of their relationships.
