In the story "The Father" by Bjørnstjerne Bjørnson, we meet Thord Overaas, a wealthy and influential farmer, who is deeply invested in the well-being of his only son. The narrative begins with the father's hopes for his son's future, culminating in a tragic accident that alters their relationship forever.
