| Summary | "De Eenzame; 'Klok' 'Klok'; Een lustige broeder" by Cyriel Buysse and Jaak Boonen is a collection of novellas written in the early 20th century. The book includes two distinct narratives: "De Eenzame," which explores themes of isolation and society's impact on individuals, and "Klok Klok," which provides a glimpse into rural life with a touch of humor. The stories likely reflect the social dynamics and cultural aspects of the time period, offering readers insight into the human condition amidst changing societal structures. In "De Eenzame," we follow the character Poover, who lives a profoundly lonely existence in a remote hut on desolate heathland. His life revolves around the care of a few animals and the crops he cultivates. Poover's interactions with the outside world are minimal, leading him to develop a deep fear of human contact. However, when the construction of a new railway impacts his life, he experiences both curiosity and fear as he witnesses the modernization of his isolated world. "Klok Klok," on the other hand, tells the story of humorous encounters on a small farm, highlighting the everyday events of rural life. This narrative contrasts with the solemnity of Poover’s existence, showcasing a lighter examination of community interaction and folk humor, ultimately reflecting the complexities of human relationships shaped by their surroundings.
