Summary "Kiusaaja: Romaani" by Mór Jókai is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story appears to explore themes of intrigue, personal conflict, and possible redemption in a backdrop of societal issues. The opening introduces the protagonist, a man disillusioned with life, filled with ennui and frustration as he contemplates his options in the early hours of the morning, leading to unexpected encounters that may change his fate. At the start of the novel, the narrator leaves a tavern called "Sinikissa," reflecting on his uninteresting life filled with vice. He debates where to go next, ultimately deciding to visit a hill to view the sunrise for the first time. However, on his way, he encounters a distressed young woman on the edge of a bridge contemplating suicide. After a tense interaction, he learns that she is in dire straits because of her father's financial troubles, which may result in her being forced into a life of servitude. In his compassion, he offers to help her father by procuring money through his connections, setting the stage for their intertwined fates amid the societal decay surrounding them.
