Translated by Emil Palm
A collection of maritime-themed short stories likely written in the early 20th century. The stories appear to explore humorous and sometimes precarious situations encountered by sailors, focusing on character interactions that reveal the quirks and challenges of life at sea. The opening of the collection sets the tone with a lively scene aboard the ship Arethusa, where tensions arise due to the behavior of a mischievous dog named Rupert, who is at the center of a series of escalating disputes among the crew. The laivuri and the perämies engage in a heated debate over the dog's aggressive actions, leading to humorous exchanges about legality and moral implications surrounding a supposedly poisoned fish. The narrative introduces the quirky dynamics of ship life, hinting at the blend of comedy and conflict that will likely permeate the stories within.
