'Gevleugelde Daden' Summary
Gevleugelde Daden follows the adventures of a group of eccentric Dutch airship pioneers who dream of conquering the skies. The story is told with a comedic and fantastical tone, poking fun at the early days of aviation. The characters encounter numerous obstacles and mishaps, including unexpected encounters and romantic entanglements. Throughout the book, Heijermans uses the story of these airship pioneers to satirize the human desire for achievement and the sometimes comical struggles that accompany ambition.
