| Summary | "Eläinten nahoissa: Tarina Ruijasta" by Matti Aikio is a novel written in the early 20th century. The book delves into the lives and customs of the Sámi people in Norway, inherently examining themes of cultural identity and the encroachment of modernity. The main character, Biettar Oula, represents a strong, rugged figure embodying the complexities of traditional Sámi life. The opening of the novel presents a tense situation in a Sámi village's court, with Biettar Oula and his wife, Elle, involved in the hearing regarding a theft of reindeer. The atmosphere is thick with local color and cultural nuances, showcasing Aikio's rich description of the character's attire and surroundings. As the trial unfolds, Biettar's steadfastness is tested by the proceedings, reflecting the struggle between traditional values and the new legal pressures from outside influences. Filled with vivid imagery and emotional undercurrents, the beginning sets the stage for a blend of drama and cultural commentary as it introduces the central themes of love, conflict, and the preservation of Sámi identity against the backdrop of shifting societal norms.
