Tapio Riikonen "Rehti-Jaakko" by Gustav Höcker is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story revolves around the character of Jaakko, a young boy born on a cargo ship along the Thames, who faces a tumultuous childhood marred by tragedy and the harsh realities of life. The book delves into themes of hardship, perseverance, and self-discovery as Jaakko navigates his challenging circumstances. The opening of the novel introduces Rehti-Jaakko, who was born on a cargo ship, raised by his father—a skilled but uneducated ship captain—and a mother whose struggle with alcoholism ultimately leads to her tragic death. After witnessing this harrowing event, Jaakko finds himself alone on the ship, grappling with grief and fear. He is later taken in by a kindly family, the Drummonds, where he begins to learn how to read and write, providing a foundation for his growth. The beginning sets the tone for Jaakko's journey from a troubled childhood to the pursuit of a better life, highlighting his innate resilience and determination.
