Author Nielsen, Zakarias, 1844-1922
Title Murrosaikana
Credits E-text prepared by Juhani Kärkkäinen and Tapio Riikonen
Summary "Murrosaikana" by Zakarias Nielsen is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story begins in the tranquil village of Rörby, a place that has remained untouched by the rapid developments occurring outside its borders, particularly in the realm of dance and entertainment. The arrival of a colorful dance instructor, Herr Sundström, sparks curiosity among the village's youth, presenting them with a gateway to progress and new cultural experiences. The opening of the book introduces readers to Rörby’s charming yet stagnant community, characterized by its conservative ways and lack of modernization. As the narrative unfolds, we meet several key characters, including the elderly schoolmaster J. H. Lystrup, who adheres to traditional values, and Emma, his spirited daughter, who yearns for excitement. The arrival of Herr Sundström instigates a series of events that challenge the status quo, as the villagers express both excitement and skepticism about embracing the dance lessons and the changes that come with them. Through a vivid portrayal of village life, Nielsen sets the stage for an exploration of personal and societal transformations. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
