| Summary | "Setä Tuomon tupa" by Harriet Beecher Stowe is a novel written in the mid-19th century. The story is set on a plantation in Kentucky and focuses on the lives of enslaved individuals, particularly highlighting the character of Uncle Tom, who is faithful and deeply religious, and Edward Shelby, a young boy who befriends him. The narrative reflects themes of slavery, compassion, and the moral dilemmas faced by the characters amid the harsh realities of their existence. The opening of the novel introduces readers to the Shelby family, who own a sizable plantation where Uncle Tom serves as a trusted slave. Mr. Shelby faces financial difficulties and is pressured to sell Uncle Tom and a young boy named Harry to pay off his debts. Despite his good nature and kind treatment of his slaves, Mr. Shelby's circumstances force him into a morally troubling position. The beginning sets the stage for the impending struggles and heart-wrenching decisions that will unfold as the characters navigate the oppressive system of slavery, emphasizing the close relationships between the enslaved individuals and their masters as well as the personal impact of the looming sale on their lives.
