Title Jörn Uhl: Romaani
Credits Produced by Juhani Kärkkäinen and Tapio Riikonen
Summary "Jörn Uhl" by Gustav Frenssen is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story is set in a rural environment and follows the life of Jörn, a young boy growing up in a large estate, as he navigates the complexities of family dynamics and social interactions, particularly during gatherings. The narrative hints at themes of familial responsibilities, childhood innocence, and the contrast between past and present. At the start of the novel, the scene is set in the Uhl estate, where the household prepares for a celebration. The characters are introduced, including Jörn, his pregnant mother, Klaus Uhl, and various siblings, all engaged in playful banter amidst an atmosphere of anticipation. The mother reflects on her past, making a contrast between her current life and her history, setting the tone for deeper existential themes, including notions of change and tradition. There is a sense of unease within the household, marked by superstitions and a foreboding feeling hinted at through the character of Wieten, underscoring a narrative that intertwines both joy and sorrow.
