| Summary | "Työmiehiä: Kertomus nykyajan oloista" by K. A. Järvi is a novel written in the late 19th century. The book centers on the life of Pura, a young worker who faces the challenges and harsh realities of industrial labor in Finland, highlighting themes such as class struggle, the impact of alcoholism, and the search for dignity in a male-dominated working environment. At the start of the story, we are introduced to Pura, an orphan who becomes a worker in a Helsinki machine workshop. Through his eyes, the reader sees the bleak atmosphere of factory life, as Pura grapples with peer pressure towards drinking and violence, ultimately leading him to defend his dignity by confronting a drunken foreman. After losing his job due to this conflict, Pura reflects on the societal issues affecting workers and decides to seek employment elsewhere, driven by hope for a better future. The opening sets up a narrative of personal struggle against broader societal issues, indicating Pura's determination to assert his worth as a worker in the face of adversity.
