Onder Buren by Juli Zeh

In a small rural community, a controversial development plan—centered on building wind turbines—sets neighbors against one another and exposes simmering resentments, long‑buried secrets and shifting alliances. Through a chorus of local voices and perspectives, the novel maps how personal ambitions, historical baggage and outside interests transform ordinary disputes into moral and social fault lines, offering a sharp, darkly comic portrait of contemporary rural life.
