The Song of the Blood-Red Flower by Johannes Linnankoski
"The Song of the Blood-Red Flower" by Johannes Linnankoski is a romance novel published in 1905. Loosely based on the Don Juan legend, it follows Olof Koskela, a young log driver who charms woman after woman as he travels from village to village, giving each a poetic nickname but never staying. When he encounters the proud and unattainable Kyllikki, however, his carefree existence is challenged. The novel traces his journey from passionate
wanderer to something more, exploring themes of love, responsibility, and self-discovery. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
