| Summary | "De vliegende Hollander" by Piet Visser is a historical novel written in the early 20th century. The story focuses on Pieter van Halen, a skilled shipbuilder and ambitious captain in the early 17th century, as he pursues innovative designs for faster ships while facing skepticism from his peers and numerous challenges in his endeavors. At the start of the narrative, the reader is introduced to Pieter van Halen, a talented shipbuilder who seeks to create a revolutionary ship that would outpace all existing vessels. Despite his expertise and previous success at sea, he struggles to gain acceptance for his new designs, facing mockery and dismissive attitudes from fellow sailors. As he embarks on a series of adventures, including a journey to the East Indies, he navigates both the trials of shipbuilding and the dangers of the ocean, gathering experiences that will shape his future endeavors and determine the fate of his ambitions. The opening portion sets the stage for his character development and underscores the themes of innovation, perseverance, and the quest for success against the odds.
