"Jälkipoimintoja 1: Volmari" by Pietari Päivärinta is a historical novel written in the late 19th century. The narrative centers around two neighboring homesteads, Ellula and Hakkila, and the contrasting lives of their inhabitants, particularly focusing on the character of Wolmari, the son of Elias from Ellula, and his struggles within a harsh familial environment. The text offers a glimpse into the themes of social classes, family dynamics, and the varying experiences of poverty and wealth. At the start of the novel, the author introduces the settlements of Ellula and Hakkila, underscoring their differences in prosperity and the lives of their respective inhabitants. Elias, the hardworking and frugal man of Ellula, triumphs through diligent farming, while Hakkila's residents, struggling with poverty, lean on Ellula for assistance. As the narrative unfolds, we witness the oppressive and tyrannical nature of Ellu, Wolmari's father, whose strictness towards his family creates an environment of fear and heartache. Wolmari's development is marked by his father's harsh upbringing, leading to internal conflicts as he navigates the difficulties of growing up in such a challenging household, ultimately setting the stage for the emotional and social exploration that permeates the rest of the story.
