Summary "Israelin tyttäret" by Hilja Haahti is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story appears to explore themes of identity, belonging, and cultural tension through the lives of Jewish characters in Finland facing societal challenges. The main characters include Haijele and Mirjam, two Jewish sisters navigating the complexities of their environment amid interactions with local boys. The opening of the novel sets the scene in a quaint neighborhood where children play outside. Three boys, Toimi, Pentti, and Esko, discuss their lives and the lack of other boys in their area, including their perceptions of the Jewish neighbors. As the boys talk, they encounter Haijele and Mirjam, the daughters of Israel Poll, who are subjected to both curiosity and prejudice. Tensions rise as interactions between the children reflect broader societal attitudes, leading to incidents that signify the deep-rooted discrimination they face. The family's dynamics and their feelings towards their situation are introduced, laying the groundwork for exploring cultural identity and conflict as the narrative progresses.
