| Summary | "Jaakoppi" by Alexander Lange Kielland is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story revolves around Törres Snörtevold, a young peasant with dreams of wealth and adventure who is making his way from his rural home to the city, filled with anticipation and golden visions. The tale explores themes of ambition, class differences, and the struggles faced by individuals as they navigate new environments and social dynamics. At the start of the narrative, Törres is depicted walking toward the city, enchanted by the concept of gold and wealth he has barely encountered in his life. He possesses two gold coins, which he treasures, and he is determined to seize this opportunity to enter the city that promises prosperity. However, his journey is interrupted by the dismissive laughter of a group of city dwellers, a moment that propels him into feelings of anger and disappointment. As he begins to grapple with the realities of urban life, he discovers that the city is not only a place of dreams but also one of significant class divides, where his rural background may not grant him the acceptance he longs for.
