The Soul Lover
You have earthly love in every possible form. But then you also have soul love: an intense, unconditional love for your unique soulmate, who was destined for you by God himself at creation. An eternal love that transcends time and space, and is far above religious dogmas and beliefs. But then that love for your unique soulmate turns out to be forbidden ... Chaim Jacobson, an orthodox Jew and diamond dealer from Antwerp, finds his soulmate - his besjert - in the free-spirited, Catholic Céline Denoyel, a hotel owner in Knokke. According to the laws of his strict faith, however, Céline is completely unattainable and he is torn by the unbearable conflict between his heart and his mind. Will the predestined, heavenly love ultimately triumph over the legalistic beliefs of Chaim's orthodox religion? The book wants to take the reader into the beauty of Judaism, but at the same time make him believe in the sublime beauty of pure Love at the soul level. In addition to discovering this Heavenly Love, the main characters also evolve in their personal spiritual consciousness during the story. The story takes place in Knokke-Heist, Antwerp and Jerusalem (and also a small part in the beloved birthplace of the author: Lissewege). 'The Soul Lover' takes you on an inner journey, turns you inside out, touches your deepest sorrow and your greatest joy to ultimately leave you with a burning heart and the deep realization that true love is not a fairy tale, but really exists.
