"Kauhea Tarzan: Seikkailuromaani Afrikan aarniometsistä" by Edgar Rice Burroughs is a novel likely written in the early 20th century. The book follows the adventures of Tarzan, a man raised by apes in the African jungle, as he embarks on a journey to find his missing wife, Lady Jane. Themes of survival and the clash between civilization and the wild permeate the narrative, setting the stage for Tarzan's encounters with various creatures and cultures in the heart of Africa. The opening of the novel introduces a tense scene in the jungle, where a powerful lion stalks its prey, a bipedal human figure who moves cautiously through the underbrush. This figure, revealed to be Tarzan, is on a desperate quest to locate Lady Jane, who has been taken captive. The narration captures the primal instincts of both predator and prey, establishing Tarzan's connection to the jungle and hinting at the dangers he faces. As the story unfolds, it quickly becomes evident that Tarzan must navigate not only the physical threats of the wilderness but also the complexities of human conflict and connection, making for an engaging exploration of themes central to Burroughs’ work.
