| Summary | "Poutaa odottaessa: Ilveily 2:ssa näytöksessä" by Väinö Kataja is a play written in the early 20th century. Set in contemporary rural Finland, the narrative revolves around agricultural life, focusing particularly on the anticipation and significance of fair weather for haymaking. The play explores themes of superstition and communal dependency on nature, reflecting the societal norms and practices of that era. The storyline follows Harjula and his family as they prepare for a possible trip to their best hay field, Käkisaari, while simultaneously dealing with ambiguous weather conditions. The characters engage in humorous banter about weather predictions and the reliability of a newly acquired barometer. As the tension builds regarding the impending weather, various neighbors and community members join in, revealing their superstitions, aspirations, and frustrations. The play culminates in a dramatic clash when the awaited fair weather fails to materialize, leading to accusations and the community's reaction to Harjula's optimistic predictions. The humor and interpersonal dynamics captured in the characters' interactions provide not only entertainment but also a critique of rural life and its complexities.
