About this eBook

Author Roos, Mathilda, 1852-1908
Title Sieluntaisteluita
Credits Produced by Tapio Riikonen
Summary "Sieluntaisteluita" by Mathilda Roos is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story unfolds in a social setting where individuals interact at a gathering hosted by the recently widowed Mrs. Rehnberg, who is keen to impress her guests with her cultural connections and culinary skills. Central to the narrative is Lovisa Schöning, the wife of Erland, who navigates the social complexities alongside her husband, reflecting on her past struggles with poverty and her current transition into a more affluent life. The opening of the novel sets the scene at a reception hosted by Mrs. Rehnberg, showcasing the mix of social anxieties and the desire for connection among her guests. Lovisa, characterized by her deep emotional awareness, finds herself caught between the joy her husband’s newfound success brings and the lingering shadows of her impoverished past. As the gathering unfolds—with guests discussing arts, intellectual pursuits, and social matters—Lovisa introspectively questions the legitimacy of her happiness amidst her previous struggles with material hardship. Her emotional journey reveals a complex internal conflict as she balances her gratitude for their improved circumstances with an awareness of ongoing social inequalities, signaling the deep psychological themes central to the narrative that will likely pervade the rest of the novel.
