The story revolves around the life of Eero, the eldest child in a family struggling with the burdens of daily life and his parents' troubling relationship. As he navigates his complex emotional landscape, the novel explores themes of longing, loneliness, and the nuances of familial duty against the backdrop of societal expectations. The beginning of the narrative introduces readers to Eero’s home environment, characterized by a mix of familial chaos and individual introspection. In the warm, yet somber doctor’s house, Eero is depicted as a withdrawn figure, lost in his books, while the rest of the family engages in their daily activities. As the story unfolds, his mother's struggles with her husband's alcoholism and the heavy responsibilities of motherhood weigh on her, impacting the family's dynamics and Eero's internal world. The text hints at Eero's feelings of isolation and his yearning for connection, which are only intensified by the complex relationships he observes. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
