QR code
"Een huwelijk in Indië" by Mina Krüseman is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story introduces Lina van Wageningen, the main character, who embarks on a journey shaped by her father's unique educational approach and her own desires, ultimately leading to her adventures in East India. The novel explores themes of identity, societal expectations, and the complexities of love and duty. At the start of the narrative, we meet
Ritmeester Van Wageningen, who retreats from society following his wife's death to focus on raising his two children, particularly his daughter Lina. Unlike her peers, Lina is given a nontraditional upbringing that encourages independence and critical thinking, which makes her an outcast in their village. The opening chapters depict her empathetic nature and spirited personality, illustrated through her interactions with animals and her father's unconventional lessons about life and relationships. As she grows up, Lina's aspirations and choices appear to pull her toward a future full of both potential and societal challenges, setting the stage for her move to India.
