About this eBook

Author Ervast, Pekka, 1875-1934
Title Haaveilija
Credits Produced by Juhani Kärkkäinen and Tapio Riikonen
Summary "Haaveilija" by Pekka Ervast is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story revolves around Eero, a sensitive and introspective young man grappling with profound questions about life, truth, and existence. As Eero navigates his upbringing, which is marked by a deep yearning for ideals and friendships, the novel explores his personal struggles and philosophical dilemmas against the backdrop of societal expectations. The opening of "Haaveilija" introduces Eero as an orphan raised by his aunt and uncle, who provide him with both love and guidance. Despite his nurturing environment, Eero feels a profound disconnect with the world, as illustrated through his reflections on literature, friendship, and the pain he senses in others. As he grows older, he becomes increasingly aware of societal injustices and begins to question the purpose of education and life's deeper truths. His formative years are marked by a quest for understanding and the formation of a pact with his friends to strive for goodness and truth, sparking themes of idealism and social consciousness within the narrative.
