Summary: "Hyvä naapuri" by Anonymous is a historical fiction novel written in the early 20th century. The narrative centers around the lives of two neighboring families, the Liscomes and the Wisp family, focusing on themes of kindness, forgiveness, and community dynamics. Through interactions between the two families, the story explores how familial love and moral values can ultimately foster goodwill, even in the face of adversity and past grievances. At the start of the novel, as the Liscome family relocates to a new home in Connecticut, they arrive at a local inn where the hostess misjudges their status by hesitating to provide them the best accommodations. The Liscomes have a large family, including the youngest, nicknamed Poju, who voices his distress when their mother steps away.

As the Liscomes establish themselves in their new environment, they face ongoing challenges from the Wisps, highlighting themes of neighborly conflict.
