Summary "Satuja" by August Strindberg is a collection of fairy tales written in the early 20th century. The book features various stories, each with unique characters and moral lessons, vividly reflecting the themes of nature, human emotions, and the mystical elements of folklore. The opening of "Satuja" introduces readers to a serene scene during midsummer in the Nordic region, where a ninety-year-old mother lies in bed, observing the world through her magical window panes that color her view. As she watches her family, including her sons and grandchildren, her perspective shifts dramatically through the magical hues. The narrative captures vivid moments as the dove sings of heavenly joys and beckons individuals to embrace the beauty of life around them. However, as the story unfolds, it presents the struggles of the characters, such as a tired young mother and her child longing for comfort and understanding amidst their humble existence, setting the tone for a blend of resignation, hope, and the quest for happiness.
