| Summary | "Verinen lyhty: Romaani" by Jalmari Finne is a novel written in the late 1920s. The story unfolds in a rural setting where a tragic murder has occurred, raising questions about relationships and hidden motives. The central character appears to be Matti Peltola, whose untimely death and the surrounding events reveal secrets and tensions among the local inhabitants. At the start of the narrative, a gunshot is heard on a dark autumn evening, prompting Heikkilä's innkeeper and his wife to investigate. The arrival of the young servants, Väinö and Kalle, from a nearby dance leads to the shocking discovery of Matti Peltola's lifeless body on the road. As whispers of who might be responsible for the crime emerge, tensions rise as various characters—the innkeeper, his wife, and a local cobbler—share their perspectives. Suspicion begins to swirl around those closest to Matti, prompting investigations into their relationships and motives, especially regarding a possible romantic triangle involving Anna, the innkeeper's daughter. The opening sets the stage for an intricate exploration of class dynamics and personal betrayals in the wake of a violent crime. (This is an automatically generated summary.) |
