Summary | "Kuuselan Kukka" by Theodolinda Hahnsson is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story is set in Northern Finland and revolves around the lives of the characters Niemen Ukko, his son Mikki, and Lyylia, identified as "Kuuselan Kukka," during a time of familial expectation and social dynamics. The narrative unfolds with themes of love, social class, and the impact of parental influence on romantic choices. The opening of the book introduces Niemen Ukko, an older fisherman who has recently lost his young wife and is raising their son, Mikki, with immense care and affection. Mikki grows into a skilled and beloved young man known for his prowess in fishing and sports. The plot takes a turn when his father desires a more advantageous marriage alliance for him, particularly eyeing the wealthy Kaisu from Kuusela, but Mikki's heart lies with Lyyli, the daughter of Kraatari, who is thought to be of lower social standing. The tension between Mikki's burgeoning romantic desires and his father’s ambitions creates an emotional landscape rich with conflict, setting the stage for the events that will follow as the characters navigate their relationships against societal expectations.
