Onheil in Black Creek

In Onheil in Black Creek, Dirk, the son of the founder of a once-thriving Flemish western village, must let go of the world he knows when a younger generation plans to give the site an entirely new purpose. As he struggles with change and ageing, the aftermath of a horse-thief spectacle that went wrong years earlier also resurfaces. Hugo Matthysen's text combines dark humour with a story about letting go, generational change and friendship.
