Hilligenlei (Pyhä maa)
Anna Siren and Tapio Riikonen
"Hilligenlei (Pyhä maa)" by Gustav Frenssen is a novel written in the early 20th century. The work revolves around the small coastal town of Hilligenlei and explores the lives, struggles, and aspirations of its inhabitants, particularly focusing on themes of faith, hope, and the quest for a meaningful existence." "The opening of the novel introduces the reader to a stormy night impacting the coastal village of Hilligenlei. It establishes a sense of foreboding as characters like Rieke Thomsen, an experienced midwife, and Hule Beiderwand, a lonely old man with deep faith, prepare for an impending childbirth. Amidst the storm, the narrative hints at the existence of a community marked by an old belief in the possibility of their town becoming a "holy land." As tensions rise with the struggles of the people around them, the arrival of a young woman in distress adds urgency and drama to the initial chapter, setting the stage for exploration of their intertwined lives in the face of both personal and communal challenges."
