| Summary |
"Taivaallisia tarinoita" by Ernst Lampén is a fictional work written in the early 20th century. The narrative seemingly explores the turbulent socio-political landscape of Finland during and after the civil war, reflecting on the struggles between different factions within society. The protagonist appears to engage in introspection and philosophical discourse, touching upon themes of humanity, conflict, and the quest for solace amidst chaos. At the start of the narrative, the protagonist observes the violent atmosphere of Helsinki, where the civil war manifests in aggressive confrontations between various groups. Feeling targeted and scrutinized due to his physical appearance, he grapples with the absurdity of these social tensions and expresses disillusionment over the failure of ideological roots amidst the bloodshed. As he tries to navigate the societal turmoil around him, he finds emotional reprieve in music and companionship with his nurturing figure, Impi Maria, ultimately leading to a symbolic journey to a more ethereal realm, suggesting a desire to escape the brutal reality of human conflict.
