Juhani Kärkkäinen and Tapio Riikonen "Sokkosilla" by Juho Hoikkanen is a novel written in the early 20th century. The narrative seems to revolve around the life of a girl named Laina who faces a grave medical condition, possibly linked to a "moving plant" within her abdomen, and explores themes of secrecy, maternal instincts, and the moral implications of choices during a crisis. As the story unfolds, key characters such as the housekeeper Marjaana and Laina's parents find themselves entangled in a situation that could change their lives forever. The opening of "Sokkosilla" presents a dark and mysterious atmosphere during an August night at the Iso-Mannila estate. Laina is suffering in silence, which prompts worry from Marjaana, who hears her cries. When Marjaana realizes Laina has gone missing and embarks on a frantic search, she discovers a hidden secret — a newborn child potentially linked to Laina's plight. This discovery leads to a gripping tension around the decisions that must be made regarding the child’s survival, the risks of exposure, and the protective actions taken by the adults involved. The narrative introduces deep emotional struggles and ethical dilemmas, setting the stage for complex developments in the story ahead.
