N2  - "Mäenpään isäntä: Kyläromaani kapinaviikilta" by Veikko Korhonen is a historical novel written in the early 20th century. The book is set against the backdrop of civil unrest in Finland during the early stages of a revolutionary period. It primarily follows Juho, the landowner of Mäenpää, as he navigates the tensions between his workers and the growing socialist sentiments that threaten his way of life.  The opening portion of the novel introduces a tense and foreboding atmosphere in the village of Mäenpää as Juho returns from the fields to find his farm engulfed in unrest. The laborers, filled with revolutionary fervor instigated by socialist literature, are openly discussing their grievances and displaying signs of rebellion. Juho's attempts to maintain a peaceful relationship with his workers are met with hostility and threats, indicating that a significant upheaval is imminent. As the narrative unfolds, hints of the approaching conflict and its implications for Juho and his family intensify, setting the stage for a dramatic exploration of class struggle, loyalty, and survival amid societal chaos.
