Tapio Riikonen
"Punasydän eli Metsien kummitus: Kertomus Pohjois-Amerikan Yhdysvalloista" by P. B. St. is a narrative probably written in the early 20th century. The book falls within the genre of adventure fiction, and it explores themes of conflict between Native Americans and white settlers in North America. The story revolves around the mysterious figure known as "Punasydän" (Red Heart), a ghostly entity that terrifies and hunts down Native Americans. The narrative unfolds primarily through the experiences of various characters, including Dakota warriors and settlers. It begins with a meeting among Dakota tribesmen who ponder the threat posed by Punasydän, who leaves his victims marked with a red heart. The plot thickens with the introduction of young warriors like Haukka and Julma Korppikotka, who both confront Punasydän, leading to tragic outcomes. Ultimately, the story features the reunion of two brothers, Edmund and Rudolf Wigth, who both have complicated histories involving violence against Native Americans. The tale closes on a note of reconciliation, where the brothers abandon their vengeful pursuits to coexist peacefully, reflecting themes of understanding and the human capacity for change.
