Väsynyt -- Syntymäpäivä -- Lyöntien lomissa -- Vuoksella -- Kuudes käsky -- Kahden puolen aitaa.

"Väsynyt ja muita kertomuksia" by Erkki Kivijärvi is a collection of short stories likely written in the early 20th century. The narratives explore themes of personal relationships, societal expectations, and the complexities of human emotions through a character-driven lens. The prominent character introduced in the opening, Telma Autere, embodies both charm and a deep-seated melancholy, as she interacts with others, revealing layers of her personality and the people around her. At the start of the collection, the narrative unfolds with a dreamlike account of a man's recollection of a spring night and discussions with Telma Autere. As they stroll, the man reflects on their context, sparking insights into her life and the people connected to her, including an old schoolmate, Birger Björklöf, whose past struggles juxtapose with Telma's vibrant yet troubled demeanor. Their conversation touches on themes of lost potential and the perception of women in society, hinting at complex interpersonal dynamics that will likely develop throughout the collection. This opening segment sets the tone for a deeper exploration of exhaustion in various forms, both literal and metaphorical, as characters navigate their emotional landscapes.
