Kunnon kansalaisia : $b Viisitoista tarinaa

A vivid tableau of rural Finnish life unfolds in this collection of fifteen short narratives, each rooted in the rhythms of the countryside and the simple, sometimes uncanny events that shape a village’s memory. From the sudden storm that drives townsfolk to ring church bells in a desperate attempt to chase away ominous clouds, to a mysterious ark bobbing on flood‑tossed waters with a tiny lamb perched on its lid, the stories blend everyday chores with moments of wonder and quiet humor.

The tone feels both warm and observant, capturing the chatter of markets, the clatter of carts, and the murmured suspicions that ripple through close‑knit communities. Characters such as the earnest Suola‑Paavo, the wary villagers, and itinerant tradesmen reveal folk wisdom and moral questions without ever straying into grand drama. Listeners will be drawn into a world where nature’s moods and human resilience intersect in charming, thought‑provoking snapshots of 19th‑century life.
