Summary "Alleen op de Wereld" by Hector Malot is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story centers around a young boy named Rémi, who discovers he was abandoned as an infant and has been raised by a compassionate woman named Mother Barberin. The opening sets a poignant stage of self-discovery, abandonment, and the early bonds between children and those who nurture them, filled with themes of love, loss, and the search for belonging. The beginning of the novel introduces Rémi as he reflects on his childhood, believing for years that Mother Barberin is his real mother. However, his life takes a dramatic turn when he learns the truth about his origins and faces the harsh reality that he may be sent to a foundling hospital. The narrative captures Rémi’s innocent perception of love and care juxtaposed with the impending separation from the only family he’s known. The sense of longing and fear as he contemplates his fate is vividly portrayed, immersing readers in his emotional journey. As the story unfolds, the characters and setting lay the groundwork for Rémi's subsequent adventures, promising a tale filled with resilience and hope. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
