Tapio Riikonen "Nuori Suomi I-III: Novelleja ja kertomuksia suomalaisilta kirjailijoilta" by Various is a collection of short stories written in the late 19th century. This anthology features narratives from various Finnish authors, reflecting the themes and cultural nuances of Finnish society during this period. The stories delve into personal dilemmas, social issues, and the struggles of identity amid a changing landscape, especially focusing on the experiences of individuals navigating familial and societal expectations. The opening of the first part introduces us to Emil, a young man caught between his progressive ideals and the expectations of his mother, the chamberlain's wife. As Emil engages in introspections by a stream in Savonia, he grapples with his choices — particularly around marriage and societal duties. His mother, distressed by his rejection of a conventional lifestyle, laments his involvement with the Finnish language and culture. The narrative showcases Emil's disdain for societal norms and his quest for personal freedom, ultimately setting the stage for themes of identity, obligation, and the contrast between tradition and modernity throughout the collection.
