| Summary | "Erään perheen tarina" by Wilkie Collins is a novel written in the early 20th century. The narrative introduces us to a complex tale unfolding around the character of James Smith and his wife, who faces betrayal and turmoil due to his questionable actions and relationships. The story centers on themes of love, loyalty, and deception within the context of familial dynamics, setting the stage for a gripping exploration of human relationships. The beginning of the novel establishes a layered atmosphere, revealing the protagonist Bill, a loyal servant who recounts the story of his employer, Mr. James Smith, and his wife, Mrs. Norcross. The narrative delves into the troubled marriage strained by Mr. Smith's turbulent behavior, his love for the sea, and the influence of the charming yet contentious Mrs. Norcross. The tension escalates when Mr. Smith abruptly leaves for a sailing trip, leading to rumors and whispers of infidelity. As chaos ensues with the arrival of an ominous anonymous letter suggesting Mr. Smith's unfaithfulness, the characters' personalities and relationships become increasingly complicated, setting the stage for the dramatic events that follow.
