Kahdeksan serkusta by Louisa May Alcott
"Kahdeksan serkusta" by Louisa May Alcott is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story centers around Rose, a young girl who has recently lost her parents and is left to live with her aunts and their lively extended family. As she arrives at her new home, she must navigate her grief, the dynamics of her relatives, especially her many cousins, and the changes in her life. At the startof the novel, Rose finds herself grappling with loneliness and sorrow in the stately home of her aunts, following the loss of her mother and father. As she settles in, trying to distract herself with books and the beauty of her surroundings, she meets Febe, a cheerful girl who works in the kitchen and brings a spark of joy and energy into Rose's life. Soon after, Rose encounters her many cousins, who fill the house with energy and mischief, much to her apprehension. The beginning of the story sets the stage for Rose's struggle to fit into her new family while she copes with her loss, highlighting themes of friendship, resilience, and the importance of family ties.
