Summary "Jännittävä talvi: Kertomus" by Eva Hirn is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story revolves around two orphaned brothers, Esko and Simo Linja, who are taken in by their uncle, Dr. Elis Someri, following their mother's death. The narrative explores the dynamics of their new living arrangements and the adjustments the boys must make in their lives, as well as the challenges faced by their uncle as he takes on the role of guardian while balancing his academic responsibilities. At the start of the novel, Dr. Someri receives a letter informing him of his new role as the guardian of his late sister’s sons. As he discusses arrangements for their arrival with a housekeeper named Minna, their contrasting views about managing the boys hint at the impending disruption they will bring to the doctor's orderly life. The brothers eventually arrive, introducing themselves in a reserved manner while assessing their new environment. Their conversation reveals the adjustments they are prepared to make and their determination to adapt, setting the stage for a story filled with adventure, maturation, and family dynamics against the backdrop of a snowy winter.
