| Summary | "Kaupungin lapsi" by Selma Anttila is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story revolves around a young girl named Saima, who is a lively maiden living in the city but longs for adventure and a change of scenery. As she embarks on a journey out of the city, she is excited by the thought of experiencing nature, freedom, and maybe even new friendships, driven by her desire to escape the confined urban life. The opening of the novel establishes Saima’s vibrant yet restless personality as she interacts with a character known as the Old Wise Man, expressing her dissatisfaction with life in the city. Saima dreams of exploring the wilderness and eventually takes it upon herself to venture forth, gathering her belongings and friends to set off on an adventure. The rich imagery and dialogue illustrate her anticipation and excitement as she navigates her way towards Kulanpää, a countryside destination filled with mystery and new experiences. The narrative hints at themes of youth, adventure, longing for freedom, and the contrast between city life and the natural world, setting the stage for Saima’s journey of self-discovery.
