| Summary | "Ylen katsotuita" by Jaakko Nikkinen is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story follows a group of orphaned children in a rural setting, focusing on their daily lives, emotional struggles, and the challenges they face in a harsh world. Central to the narrative are the siblings Masa, Jukka, and Sanni, who are grappling with their loss and the uncertainty of their futures. At the start of the book, there is a poignant depiction of a quiet rural home where their aunt is preparing a meal while the children express their innocence and vulnerability in various interactions. As they face the reality of being orphans, Masa, the eldest, struggles with memories of their deceased parents and feels a deep sense of loss. The narrative captures the bittersweet moments of their life together, highlighting everyday activities juxtaposed with the weight of their situation. Through rich imagery and emotional depth, the opening sets the tone for a narrative that promises to explore themes of family, resilience, and the longing for belonging.
