"Pikku poikani": Yksinäytöksinen näytelmä by Emil Fredrik Nervander is a one-act play written during the late 19th century. The play revolves around Jalmari, a translator, and his wife Elise, who are preparing for the arrival of their first child. It delves into themes of expectation, anxiety, and the societal tensions of the time, reflecting the emotional struggles of the couple against the backdrop of impending parenthood. The storyline unfolds in the couple’s home as they await the birth of their son on a stormy evening. Elise expresses her eager anticipation, while Jalmari’s focus on political matters creates a tension in their domestic life. As the evening progresses, the atmosphere darkens with the arrival of a mysterious letter that reveals Jalmari's involvement in a political conspiracy that threatens to ruin their lives. The play reaches a tragic climax as Elise, overwhelmed by the implications of the letter and the societal pressures surrounding them, takes a desperate act in a moment of despair, leading to a harrowing conclusion that leaves audiences contemplating the fragility of happiness and the weight of choices.
