Summary "Lähtevien laivojen kaupunki" by Aino Kallas is a novel written in the early 20th century. The book explores themes of departure, longing, and the human condition through a series of interconnected stories, focusing on characters such as Bernhard Riives, who faces the consequences of social unrest and the struggle for dignity in a harsh world. The opening of the novel introduces us to Bernhard Riives, a peasant caught in a web of conflict following a failed uprising in a manor-held Estonian village. He is brought before a panel of officers for inciting a strike among laborers, and despite his noble intentions to assist the downtrodden, he faces severe punishment. The narrative portrays the tension between authority and the oppressed, reflecting on the implications of social justice and individual rebellion. As his story unfolds, we witness the stoic courage of Riives as he confronts his fate, tackling the broader issues of freedom and oppression that pervade the text.
