Summary "Pieni novellikirjasto VIII" by Various is a collection of short stories written in the late 19th century. This anthology features a variety of tales, including adventure and dramatic encounters, showcasing the literary styles and themes of its time. The content likely explores human experiences in diverse settings, and one of the stories involves a perilous encounter with cannibals and the desperate struggle for survival at sea. The opening of the anthology begins with "Ihmis-syöjiä," a gripping story narrated by a second mate on a sailing ship traveling from Honolulu to Sydney in 1860. As the ship approaches the dangerous Louisiade archipelago, they find themselves in need of fresh water and must land on an island notorious for its savage inhabitants. The tension escalates when they are attacked by the island's natives, leading to a harrowing escape filled with danger and resourcefulness. The protagonist reflects on prior experiences with cannibals, and through cunning and luck, they narrowly avoid disaster, setting the stage for further adventurous narratives in this intriguing collection.
