Metsäkyliltä : Kertomuksia by Hilda Tihlä
"Metsäkyliltä: Kertomuksia" by Hilda Tihlä is a collection of stories written in the early 20th century. The narrative focuses on a young girl named Hetu, who navigates a life marked by the absence of her mother and her journey through harsh realities and vivid imaginary landscapes. Through Hetu's experiences, the book explores themes of loneliness, resilience, and the quest for parental love and understanding." "At the start of the collection, Hetu is
depicted in a state of distress, listening to conversation about her mother, who has abandoned her. As she grapples with her feelings of abandonment, she imagines various fates for her mother, reflecting deep fear and confusion. Hetu's interactions with the adults around her reveal a world that is both cold and indifferent, further compounded by her longing for maternal affection. In this opening portion, Tihlä establishes a tone filled with emotional weight, creating a vivid backdrop for Hetu’s solitary explorations and the impending challenges she faces in her young life."
