Summary "Oorlogsvisioenen" by Cyriel Buysse is a novel written in the early 20th century. The narrative explores the lives of the Bollekens family during a time of impending war, highlighting the complex dynamics between the wealthy father, an outspoken son, and the lingering presence of class tensions. The book likely addresses themes of conflict, societal change, and personal relationships against the backdrop of a world facing turmoil. The opening of the novel introduces the Bollekens family, revealing the comfortable yet strained lifestyle they lead as wealthy individuals. Mr. Bollekens, the senior, lives with his divorced son, who has recently taken up residence with him along with a beautiful maid, causing tension with the son's ex-wife. As they go about their lives, an atmosphere of anxiety begins to creep in due to the rumors of impending war, subtly affecting their once idyllic routine. The introduction of the Rosbach, their favored tavern, serves as a focal point for social commentary, where the characters discuss the growing unrest and slowly come to terms with the reality of the broader conflict threatening their society.
