| Summary | "Tjensteqvinnans son: En själs utvecklingshistoria" by August Strindberg is a novel written in the late 19th century. This fictional work explores the life and development of the protagonist, Johan, as he navigates a complex family dynamic and the societal expectations of his time. The novel delves into themes of fear, class structure, and the struggles of childhood, particularly emphasizing Johan's experiences and emotions in a challenging environment. The opening of the novel introduces Johan, a sensitive boy who awakens to a world filled with fear and obligation. He lives with his family in a cramped apartment, where the atmosphere is rife with tension due to class hierarchies and his father's authoritarian nature. As Johan grapples with his feelings of inadequacy and his yearning for parental approval, he forms a keen awareness of social injustices around him. Strindberg presents Johan's childhood struggles in vivid detail, highlighting the contrasting influences of his mother and father, and the pervading sense of fear that colors his early perceptions of life and authority. This detailed depiction in the beginning sets the stage for Johan's journey of self-discovery and the challenges he faces with growing up in a rigidly structured society.
