| Summary | "Siltalan pehtori" by Harald Selmer-Geeth is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story revolves around the central figure, Polle Biörenstam, who has recently inherited a farm called Siltala under somewhat peculiar circumstances. Through Polle's experiences and interactions, the book explores themes of decadence, rural life, personal disillusionment, and the challenges of managing a traditional estate. At the start of the narrative, we meet Polle, a once spirited adventurer, who has become somewhat disillusioned and possibly dependent on alcohol. As he grapples with his new responsibilities after inheriting the farm, Polle's internal struggles are revealed through conversations with friends and his correspondence regarding his precarious situation. The opening sets a tone of both humor and melancholy, establishing Polle's witty reflections on life as he encounters domestic chaos, the burden of expectations, and hints of ongoing personal decline amidst the challenges of managing the estate.
