Summary |
"Om het recht der liefde" by Abraham Anthony Fokker is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story revolves around Marta van Zee, a young woman depicted as serious and passionate, navigating her complex emotions and relationships. The narrative likely explores themes of love, societal expectations, and personal integrity against a backdrop of moral dilemmas. At the start of the story, we find Marta anticipating a visit from her friend, Mr. Frans Jensen, on her birthday, even though she decides not to mention the occasion to him. Marta is portrayed as a serious and intelligent woman, studying medicine, along with a gruesome human skull and her academic papers scattered on her desk, which introduces an unusual juxtaposition of life and death. When Frans arrives, their playful yet serious conversation unfolds, revealing the tension between their feelings and societal perceptions of morality, especially as Marta hints at her troubled past, foreshadowing deeper conflicts that surface later in the dialogue.
