Pyhä viha: Romaani by Ilmari Kianto
"Pyhä viha: Romaani" by Ilmari Kianto is a novel written in the early 20th century. This work delves into the intricacies of Finnish rural life, focusing on the experiences and struggles of the inhabitants of Kurjala, a remote and melancholic region of Finland. The narrative portrays themes of social hierarchy, the clash of cultures, and the impact of authority on peasant life, reflecting the deeper emotions and resentments felt by the ruralpopulation. The beginning of "Pyhä viha" sets a vivid scene in the isolated setting of Kurjala, describing its harsh yet beautiful nature and the burdened lives of its inhabitants. It introduces the locals as a proud and resilient folk deeply connected to their land yet laden with a sense of historical grievance against the tyranny of the ruling classes. As the story unfolds, it hints at the pervasive tensions between the traditional ways of life and the encroaching influences of authority, religion, and modernity, all while encapsulating the bitterness and longing for freedom deeply embedded within Kurjala's culture and history.
