520			_a"Hermelijn" by Melati van Java is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story centers around a young woman named Hermine, also known as Hermelijn, who embarks on a journey to the Dutch East Indies (now Indonesia) after an arranged marriage. The narrative blends themes of longing, cultural expectations, and the dichotomy of personal desires against societal norms. At the start of the novel, the steamship "Menado" departs Amsterdam, creating a poignant scene of farewell among the passengers. Hermine is presented as a remarkable young woman who, unlike others, does not display outward emotional turmoil at her departure. The text introduces various characters aboard the ship, including officers and fellow passengers, each speculating about Hermine's background and awaiting an intriguing new life in the colonies. The opening explores the mixed emotions of excitement and trepidation about the future, especially as Hermine looks forward to reuniting with her husband, Conrad, whom she has never met.
