N2  - "Balmoedertje" by E. Overduijn-Heyligers is a novel likely written in the late 19th century. The story focuses on the complex relationship between a mother, Emilie, and her daughter, Elly, as they navigate the realms of love, youth, and societal expectations. The narrative delves into Emilie’s poignant reflections on her past and the intense emotions that arise as she prepares to usher her daughter into adulthood.  The opening of the book introduces Emilie, who is lost in her dreams, anticipating the moment her daughter Elly will return home, and reflecting on their shared warmth and the bittersweet nature of time passing. As Elly approaches her 18th birthday, Emilie's thoughts oscillate between pride and anxiety over the impending changes in their relationship, particularly with the threat of romantic interest from young men. The beginning captures a mother’s deep love intertwined with fears of loss, revealing the emotional landscape that underpins their once-simple bond as Elly steps into a new phase of life.
