| Summary | "Särkynyt sävel" by Larin-Kyösti is a poignant play written in the early 20th century. It revolves around themes of love, illness, and emotional turmoil, primarily focusing on the relationships between the characters Onni, a frail artist, and his fiancée Ireene, alongside her cousin Kaarlo, a physician. The interplay of their feelings unfolds against a backdrop of illness and longing, exploring the fragility of human emotions and connections. The narrative unfolds in a series of emotional exchanges that delve into the psyche of Onni as he grapples with his illness and insecurities regarding Ireene's affections. Throughout the play, Onni's delicate health casts a shadow over the dynamics between him, Ireene, and Kaarlo. Tension builds as Onni's fears of losing Ireene prompt him to act out possessively, ultimately leading to a tragic confrontation where the implications of love and jealousy culminate in devastating consequences. The play concludes with Onni’s death, poignantly encapsulating the idea of a "broken melody" reflecting the shattered hopes and dreams of the characters involved.
