Summary |
"Mitt liv och lefverne" by Albert Engström is a memoir written in the early 20th century. The book explores the author's reflections and experiences throughout his life, offering insights into his personal journey and interactions with various notable figures. Engström, who recounts his observations from childhood in Småland to his adventures and encounters as an adult, paints a vivid picture of his life and the people he met along the way. The opening of the memoir introduces us to Engström as an old man reflecting upon his rich life experiences. He shares his reluctance to write his memoirs despite being urged to do so, expressing a humble perspective on his existence and legacy. As he recounts memories from his early childhood, we learn about formative moments and amusing anecdotes that shaped his character, such as encounters with a hedgehog and a pig, experiences in school, and initial feelings of love. These fragments hint at both Engström's humorous disposition and the deeper philosophical observations he intends to explore throughout his life story, setting the stage for a compelling narrative filled with humor, introspection, and social commentary.
