Summary "Sammuva suku: Romaani" by Kristian Elster is a novel written in the early 20th century. The narrative centers around the lives of the Hage family, particularly focusing on the dynamics between the mother, Mrs. Hage, and her two daughters, Anne Sofie and Charlotte, as they navigate their roles and relationships within a changing rural society. Themes of isolation, familial duty, and the passage of time are likely to be explored as the characters deal with their pasts and the impending changes in their lives." "The opening of the novel introduces a serene summer evening, where Mrs. Hage reflects on her life and the deep connection to her home, marked by the garden and the scents of roses. She ponders her daughters' futures as they engage in the ritual of picking flowers for the graves, grappling with their solitude and the weight of family legacy. The scene depicts not only Mrs. Hage's inner thoughts and desires regarding companionship and lost youth but also hints at the upcoming transition as the local pastor prepares to leave, which reinforces the themes of loneliness and the passage of time. The atmosphere is imbued with nostalgia and a sense of impending change, setting the stage for the family's challenges in facing a rapidly evolving world."
