J. Gummerus Oy, $c1916. Juhani Kärkkäinen and Tapio Riikonen "Henkivakuutusherroja: Romaani" by Veikko Korhonen is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story centers around Jeremias Kantele, a former elementary school teacher who has become an insurance agent and is navigating the complexities and challenges of his new position while adjusting to the social expectations of his profession. As Kantele seeks a promotion and strives to improve his financial situation, the narrative explores themes of ambition, competition among insurance agents, and the societal pressures they face. At the start of the novel, we meet Jeremias Kantele, who is ambulating the streets of Helsinki with a troubled mind after receiving a promotion to "herra tarkastaja" with a better salary. His initial excitement is soon interrupted by an encounter with his colleague, Varsala, who reflects on the ins and outs of their profession. Kantele’s joy is contrasted with the realities of his struggles, such as financial instability and navigating relationships with clients, which he attempts to tackle in various encounters, including trying to sell insurance to a nonchalant landowner. The opening provides insight into Kantele's aspirations and hints at the rivalries among insurance agents as they compete for clients in a rural setting, setting the stage for a story rich in character development and social commentary.
