So: I read 'Wil' and Litsey doesn't knows it, even it won the fintro literature prise, which is a big thing in Belgium.
The ambiguity is well expressed in this book. For some reason Wilfried does some weird stuff and he actually has just two purposes: to survive and to keep his wife. But that's not easy said during and after WWII. Certainly when you think about the fact he's playing at two sides off the table... (the regime and the rebellion)
