Een nieuwer testament by Hella S. Haasse

Haasse's talent for description and narration and her skill with flashbacks allow her to manage the novel's many characters, constructing a microcosm in which each reader feels 'at home' and meets people with whom he or she can identify.

Charles's life is interwoven with the lives of all the other people he meets. In addition to giving a moving report of the life of a person destined to end his life in utter isolation, Hella Haasse succeeds in presenting her main character in a way which allows the reader to identify with him. Tot aan haar dood bleef het haar lievelingswerk. Kort na het verschijnen van Een nieuwer testament liet ze al in 1966 weten dt als haar beste roman te beschouwen. In it the author describes the ever-increasing loneliness of the fifteenth-century Romantic poet-prince Charles d'Orleans, pretender to the crown of France, who wrote most of his poems in British and French prisons. Bij Hella Haasse ( 1918 2011), enkele maanden geleden gestorven, lag dat anders. This novel became a classic in its own time. Haasse's greatest impact on the Dutch literary scene occurred when her historical novel Het woud der verwachting (In a Dark Wood Wandering) (1948) was published. As the two young men grow up, they gradually become conscious of their ethnic and cultural differences and, in spite of their efforts, nature appears to have destined them to become estranged from each other. It is thus understandable why her first novel, Oeroeg (1948), describes the relationship between a Dutch and an Indonesian youth. Titles such as Het woud der verwachting (In a Dark Wood Wandering, ), Een nieuwer testament (Threshold of Fire, ) and Mevrouw Bentinck of Onverenigbaarheid van karakter (Mrs Bentinck or Irreconcilable in Character, ) have been greatly enjoyed by several generations5().Hella Haasse was born in Batavia, the capital of what was then Dutch East India, now independent Indonesia. In Haasse was chosen to interview the Dutch Queen for her 50th. Her internationally acclaimed magnum opus is Heren van de Thee, translated to The Tea Lords. Querido, (OCoLC) Hélène 'Hella' Serafia Haasse (2 February – 29 September ) was a Dutch writer, often referred to as the 'Grande Dame' of Dutch literature, and whose novel Oeroeg () was a staple for generations of Dutch schoolchildren.
