Summary "Oberlén perhe" by René Bazin is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story unfolds in the backdrop of Alsace during a time of political tension and personal conflicts, focusing on the Oberlé family, with particular emphasis on Jean Oberlé, who has just returned home after completing his studies. The novel seems to delve into themes of identity, loyalty, and the struggles faced by individuals caught between two cultures. The opening of the novel introduces the character of Ulrich Biehler, a seasoned hunter, as he traverses the beautiful Vosges mountains at night. Through his introspective thoughts, the reader gains insight into Ulrich's past, his love for the land, and his complex feelings toward the German soldiers he encounters, all while he anticipates a reunion with his nephew, Jean. The narrative sets a tone of nostalgia and tension, hinting at the broader sociopolitical narratives that will unfold as Jean's return to Alsheim signifies not just a personal journey but also a reflection on the larger struggles of identity and homecoming amidst the conflict of nationalities.
