| Summary | "Kuolema: Novelleja" by Konrad Lehtimäki is a collection of short stories written in the early 20th century. This work explores themes surrounding death, human emotion, and the fragility of life, often depicted through poignant relationships and heartbreaking events. Each story invites the reader into the lives of characters facing profound moments of loss and despair, reflecting on their joys and sorrows. The opening of the collection presents a vivid scene featuring a young couple, Antti and Elli, enjoying a winter night while their infant son, Matti, sleeps in his mother's arms. As they travel in a sleigh, the narrative shifts between moments of tender love and a chilling folklore tale recounted by Antti about death and a ghostly bridegroom. Their idyllic journey soon becomes a stark contrast to the encroaching darkness as Antti's joy is overshadowed by the haunting imagery woven throughout the night. As the reader is introduced to the couple's happiness, there is an unsettling undercurrent hinting at the fragility of their contentment, setting the tone for the challenges that lie ahead in both this story and the larger collection.
