Memoirs of a Dutch village boy

By Pieter W. Broekharst

MEMOIRS OF A VILLAGE BOY is a life story, but not an entire autobiography.
The main character Frederik Brocard talks about his childhood and his friends, and about the neighborhood where he grew up, the neighbors and other local residents. It is a story about everyday events, but also about love and loss, about joy and sadness, amorous encounters, and erotic escapades. It is about his social life then and now and the return to his native village after years of residence in France. He finds new neighbors and new friends and feels like the village boy of yesteryear again. It is a mixture of factual experiences with a nod to the truth, and events that originated entirely from the author's brain. What is autobiographical is a question to which the answer will remain shrouded in darkness. Fact and fantasy, always with a quip, are connected to each other.
It is a story about a life as a life could have been.
