N2  - "Tulisieluja: Tulevaisuudenromaani" by Annie Francé is a science fiction novel written in the early 20th century. The story introduces a future world where technology has revolutionized daily life, showcasing a utopian society that has eliminated the need for traditional agriculture and labor. The main character, Henrik 19530, is a scientist troubled by the implications of artificial food sources and the societal changes they bring, particularly as he grapples with a looming crisis that threatens the city’s very existence.  The opening of the novel presents a vibrant, futuristic city, A 15, preparing for a grand celebration amid bustling activity and advanced technology. In contrast to this festive atmosphere, Henrik is portrayed in his laboratory, consumed by concern over his research and the consequences of his findings. He struggles with the fear that his discoveries related to artificial nourishment may lead to catastrophic disruptions in the natural order. As he contemplates warning the city's leadership, he encounters Gustajo from the "Secret Office," who challenges his intentions and underscores the political tensions in their society regarding the shift to synthetic resources. The narrative sets the stage for an exploration of ethical dilemmas, personal responsibility, and the tension between progress and potential disaster as humanity relies increasingly on technology.
