Akilles: Kuvaus
E-text prepared by Tapio Riikonen
"Akilles: Kuvaus" by K. A. Järvi is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story centers around Anna Tuira, a woman whose past beauty has faded, as she navigates her difficult life and motherhood in the shadow of societal judgment, particularly concerning the father of her child, Akilles. The narrative explores themes of love, betrayal, and the struggle for dignity against the backdrop of a challenging social environment. The opening of the novel introduces us to Anna and her troubled circumstances as she faces the scrutiny of Aarne, a pastor who questions her about the father of her child. Despite her shame and regrets, Anna reveals that Lennart Berg is the father, reflecting her painful past where she was seduced by love, only to be abandoned later. We see Anna wrestling with her emotions, mourning her lost potential while caring for her son Akilles, who is still very young. The beginning sketches a vivid portrait of a impoverished woman's life, setting the stage for the intersection of her struggles with the expectations of the society around her.
