The book centers around Teerelän, a farm in the village of Suhjala during the 1860s, exploring themes of family dynamics, societal struggles, and the impact of alcoholism on rural life. The main character appears to be Johanna, the daughter of the Teerelän family, who grapples with the burdens of her family's issues, particularly her father's and brothers' drinking habits. At the start of the novel, the setting is vividly described, showcasing the challenges of reaching the Teerelän farm, indicative of a life intimately connected to the land. The narrative unfolds with two girls, Johanna and Maija, during the Pentecost festivities, highlighting their conversations about attending dances and the underlying tensions in Johannas's life due to her family's struggles with alcohol. The arrival of drunken men at the farm escalates the events and sets a tone of impending conflict, both within the family and outside in their community.
