Onerva is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story revolves around Mirdja Ast, a young woman with a complex and tumultuous character who navigates the expectations and harsh judgments of society, particularly with regard to her relationships with the men around her, including Eino Kailo. The narrative examines themes of love, identity, and societal norms, delving into Mirdja's internal struggles as she seeks to assert her individuality within a conformist environment. The opening of the novel introduces a social gathering in the home of Lehtori Kailo, where various characters discuss plans for an upcoming event. During this meeting, Mirdja's name surfaces amidst speculation about her character and influence, with some deeming her a "dangerous girl" due to her unconventional background and relationships. Through dialogues between the attendees, we get insights into Mirdja's identity as both an enchanting and controversial figure, particularly in the eyes of Eino's mother, who fears her influence over her son. The narrative sets the stage for the tensions between societal expectations and personal desires, positioning Mirdja at the center of conflict as she tries to carve out her own path.
