Tapio Riikonen
"Intiaanipoika Pohjois-Amerikan aarniometsissä" by Charles A. Eastman is a memoir written in the early 20th century. The book recounts the author's childhood experiences growing up as a Native American boy among the Sioux tribe in North America. It explores themes of indigenous life and the connection to nature, weaving personal anecdotes with cultural insights. The opening of the book introduces the protagonist, Hakada, a young Sioux boy who reflects on his upbringing and the challenges of his early life. He begins by recalling his early days with his caring grandmother, who is tasked with raising him after his mother’s death. The narrative captures the warmth of family bonds and the influence of traditional practices, as well as Hakada's adventurous spirit through experiences such as hunting and exploring the wilderness. This section sets the stage for a deeper exploration of the complexities of Native American identity and the transition from a traditional way of life to the challenges posed by external societal pressures.
