Anita Sorjola : Romaani by Martti Wuori
QR code
Anita Sorjola by Martti Wuori is a novel written in the early 20th century. Set around a provincial railway community near the capital, it follows stationmaster Eino Kostia and his wife Lyyli as they move to the livelier K— station and fall into the orbit of physician Osmo Sorjola and his dazzling, restless wife Anita. Friendly socializing soon shades into temptation and manipulation when Anita fixes her attention on Eino, testing the
couple’s calm domestic happiness. The opening of the novel shows Eino and Lyyli enjoying a tranquil spring morning, debating a transfer to K—; he applies, is appointed, and they move. They befriend the Sorjolas, where Anita’s effortless charm, music, and social tact impress, even as she subtly singles out Eino. A horseback outing ends with Anita’s sprained ankle and intimate maneuvers; later she confides to Lyyli a morbid “spleen” and hunger for excitement. While Lyyli is away, Anita calls Eino to her bedside and flirts openly until Osmo appears with dry, needling humor, leaving Eino unsettled. As summer advances, Anita sweeps the newcomers into local society and a fire brigade benefit, steering the choice of a stage piece to force passionate scenes with Eino—clearly setting the stage for mounting tension.
