520 _a"'t Bolleken" by Cyriel Buysse is a novel written in the early 20th century. It explores the life and death of a character known as Nonkelken, who is depicted as a wealthy and popular villager whose indulgent lifestyle ultimately leads to his demise. The narrative delves into themes of mortality, wealth, and the nature of human desires, particularly through the eyes of his nefarious nephew, Vitàl, who stands to inherit his estate. The opening of the story introduces us to Nonkelken's life, a man celebrated in his village for his affluence and good-natured behavior. As he faces a peculiar illness marked by an ongoing struggle with a mysterious 'bolleken' in his throat, the community's interest in his health grows. His death sets off a chain of events that compel Vitàl to confront his inheritance, revealing a mix of regret and opportunism. The narrative paints vivid scenes contrasting Nonkelken's former pleasures with Vitàl's anxious contemplation about his future, hinting at a deeper commentary on the risks of excess and the moral implications of wealth.
