"Kotipoluilta II: Pieniä kertoelmia" by Emil Lassinen is a collection of short stories written in the late 19th century. The tales unfold in a nostalgic, rural setting, focusing on characters who navigate their lives with a deep connection to their surroundings and community.

The opening of this collection introduces the character Elli, a curious and imaginative girl who finds joy in drawing and exploring her surroundings. We see her relationship with her family, particularly with her father, who encourages her creativity. As she grows up, the narrative conveys her transition from childhood into the world of schooling and adulthood, depicting both her excitement and apprehensions about the future as she embarks on her journey of education in the city. The vivid descriptions of nature and the community around her complement the emotional undertones of her experiences, laying the groundwork for the stories that follow in the collection.
