Summary "Äidit: Romaani kansannaisista" by Jalmari Finne is a novel written in the early 20th century. The book delves into the lives and struggles of mothers living in rural Finland, highlighting their burdens, relationships with family, and societal expectations. The main character, Mari, is a diligent mother grappling with the emotional and physical demands of her life, as well as the evolving dynamics within her family. At the start of the narrative, we meet Mari, who is preparing a meal for her family and reflecting on her difficult life as a mother. The opening scene introduces us to her elderly mother, Helena, who tends to a newborn while both women discuss familial responsibilities and hardships, particularly concerning Mari's daughter-in-law, Alma. As Mari contemplates her own challenges and the loss of her children, the dialogue illustrates the weight of motherhood and the unspoken struggles women face, setting a poignant tone. The arrival of Mari's son, Kalle, and the concern over his wife, along with a letter from her daughter Hilma in the city, reveals intergenerational complexities and the desire for better lives for the next generation. This opening effectively sets the stage for a story rich in emotional depth and social commentary. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
