Summary "Avojalka" by Berthold Auerbach is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story explores themes of childhood innocence, loss, and the harsh realities of life, primarily focusing on two siblings, Amrei and Dami, who navigate their world after the tragic death of their parents. Through their experiences, the narrative delves into their struggles and the contrasting dynamics of kindness and cruelty they encounter as orphans. The opening of "Avojalka" introduces us to Amrei and Dami, two young children walking through a foggy autumn morning, carrying their school supplies. They approach their family home, only to find it locked, which hints at the absence of their parents. The scene is set against a backdrop of nature in transition, with the changing leaves and chirping birds. As they attempt to call out for their parents, we learn of the recent tragedy that has befallen them—a devastating illness that took both parents away. Their playful banter and interactions reflect their innocence and bond, while the stark reality of their orphanhood casts a shadow on their adventures. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
