Summary "Yksin" by Juhani Aho is a novel written in the early 20th century. The narrative revolves around themes of solitude, longing, and emotional disconnect, focusing on the experiences of the unnamed protagonist as he prepares to leave his homeland for abroad, reflecting on relationships he leaves behind, particularly with a woman named Anna. The opening of "Yksin" introduces the protagonist after a dinner with his family, highlighting an atmosphere of discomfort and tension. As he prepares to depart, he observes Anna, who he desires for a deeper connection but feels is emotionally distant. Their farewell is marked by formalities that deepen his feelings of solitude and rejection. With an inner turmoil of jealousy and sadness for the life he is leaving behind, he feels a mix of regret and a need for independence. The scene transitions from a sense of longing in familiar surroundings to a resolve to embrace the unknown future, setting the stage for his journey both geographically and emotionally.
