Title Häät

Summary "Häät" by Anne Charlotte Leffler is a novel written during the late 19th century. It explores themes of love, societal expectations, and the complexities of relationships, set against the backdrop of a wedding. The story revolves around young lovers Alfhild and Sten as they navigate the troubles and joys leading up to their marriage. The plot centers on Alfhild, a youthful bride-to-be, who is more preoccupied with her romance than the preparations for her wedding. She faces interference from her Aunt Malla, who disapproves of the quick succession of their engagement and marriage. Despite Sten's reluctance towards the societal conventions of marriage, he is drawn to Alfhild's innocent demeanor. Their relationship evolves from a playful childhood connection to the deeper complexity of adult love, highlighted by Sten's internal conflict regarding the institution of marriage itself. Ultimately, the tension between personal desires and societal pressures comes to a head during their wedding, revealing both the innocence and the challenges of young love in a changing world.
