"Kreetan harha-askel" by Juho Koskimaa is a novel written in the early 20th century. It explores themes of social struggles, human interaction, and personal tragedy, centering on the lives of various characters in harsh and realistic settings. The narrative delves into societal challenges faced by individuals like Kähkös-Jeremias and Kreeta, as they navigate their circumstances and relationships within their communities. The opening of "Kreetan harha-askel" presents a vivid tableau of life in a cold, administrative office where the main character, Jeremias Kähkönen, a disabled worker, seeks assistance after a tragic workplace accident. As he enters the office with his young son, the atmosphere is tense and filled with bureaucratic indifference. Despite his years of service and dedication, he faces dismissive attitudes from the management, highlighting the struggles of the working class. This scene is juxtaposed with a portrayal of Kreeta's personal turmoil regarding love and societal expectations, further emphasizing the book's exploration of the human condition amid societal pressures.
