That after all his achievements, he still felt incomplete without Hayati.
But maybe the author was aiming for a great love story, a guy who genuinely in love with the girl that no matter what happened, after all this time, he still love her. And at the end, he became this great writer, made a lots of contribution, helping others. Sure, who won't be sad when their heart was broken but you got through it. The way I see it, the whole rejection thing has a good effect on Zainuddin. Everything happens for a reason, sometimes you don't see it at that time. The characters are not likeable, in fact the main character, Zainuddin seems pretty depressing almost the whole story. If I take aside the romance, focus on the situation, the mindset of the community - Minangkabau people at that time- I find this a great literature. This story sets around 1930, so readers got the idea about the state of the country at that time. I like the topics mentioned in this story - religion, culture, the difference in social status. Made me wonder the whole time I was reading this, what does the author means by Tenggelamnya Kapal Van Der Wijck and I didn't know it was literally talking about a sinking ship.
A great title but the thing only happened at the end.
