1876
Louisa May Alcott
1876
Translated by Aili Wiherheimo
A novel written in the early 20th century. This work is a continuation of the story from ''Kahdeksan serkusta,'' exploring the lives of the Campbell family and their evolving relationships. The central focus appears to revolve around the characters of Rose and her cousins as they reunite after a period apart, navigating themes of personal growth, family dynamics, and the responsibilities that come with maturity. The opening of the novel sets the scene with the joyful return of Rose, who has been abroad, as her family members eagerly await her arrival. The narrative introduces various characters, including her cousins Charlie, Archie, and Mac, who engage in lively interactions filled with excitement and nostalgia. As Rose steps back into her home, the shifting dynamics of her relationships become apparent, particularly in how she is perceived by the boys now that she has matured. The chapter hints at deeper themes of ambition and self-discovery, particularly through Rose's determination to assert her identity beyond traditional expectations of womanhood.
