Résumé

"Ticket No. 9672" by Jules Verne is a narrative set in the picturesque region of Telemark, Norway, focusing on the lives of the Hansen family. The story revolves around Hulda Hansen, a young woman eagerly awaiting the return of her betrothed, Ole Kamp, from a fishing expedition in Newfoundland. Ole, a brave and adventurous sailor, has promised Hulda a prosperous future, hinting at a secret that could bring them wealth. As the days pass, Hulda and her brother Joel prepare for the upcoming wedding, which is to be a grand event in their village of Dal. Joel, a mountain guide, is supportive and optimistic, encouraging Hulda to focus on the preparations rather than her growing anxiety over Ole's delayed return. The narrative captures the essence of rural Norwegian life, highlighting the customs and traditions surrounding marriage and community gatherings. The story also delves into the emotional landscape of the characters, particularly Hulda's mix of hope and apprehension as she awaits news from Ole. The backdrop of the Norwegian countryside, with its majestic mountains and serene valleys, adds a layer of beauty and tranquility to the unfolding drama. As the wedding day approaches, the anticipation builds, leaving readers to wonder about the outcome of Ole's journey and the secret he holds.
