| Summary | "Maalaisaiheisia pakinoita" by Ilmari Kivinen is a collection of humorous essays likely written in the early 20th century. This work explores rural life and its peculiarities through a series of witty anecdotes and observations that reflect on various themes, including societal norms and individual experiences in the Finnish countryside. The opening of the collection sets the tone for what is to come, beginning with a story about a freight train on the Jyväskylä–Haapamäki railway. The narrative depicts the train's struggles against an uphill journey, personifying it with thoughts and feelings, particularly when faced with a troublesome empty freight car that leaps off the tracks. This scenario is mixed with humor and philosophical musings, illustrating the daily challenges of rural life, the quiet moments of reflection, and the unexpected events that can disrupt even the most mundane of journeys. The piece concludes with a sense of relief as the train arrives without major incident, foreshadowing the amusing and light-hearted stories that will characterize the rest of the essays.
