Summary "Tékozlók (Koruk gyermekei)" by Knut Hamsun is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story explores the lives of the Holmsen family, particularly focusing on the characters of Willatz Holmsen and his son, the third Willatz, as they navigate the challenges of wealth and decline associated with their estate, Segelfoss. The narrative captures themes of social status, personal ambition, and the complexities of familial relationships, indicating a deeper commentary on society and human nature. The opening of the novel sets the scene at Segelfoss, once a prosperous estate bustling with agricultural activity and a variety of workers. Willatz Holmsen, the estate's owner, is depicted as a once ambitious figure who has become a shadow of his former self, struggling to maintain his family's legacy while facing financial pressures. As the story unfolds, we are introduced to his son, who returns home after years away, embodying the aspirations and burdens of his lineage. This part serves as an intriguing introduction to a world of fading grandeur, personal struggle, and the generational tensions that will likely unfold as the narrative progresses.
