Raakaleenkorjuu by Sheila Kaye-Smith
"Raakaleenkorjuu" by Sheila Kaye-Smith is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story centers around the Fuller family, particularly James Fuller, who struggles with the tensions of family life, faith, and societal expectations in a rural English community. The opening sets the stage for a complex exploration of personal relationships, including those between James and his children Robert and Clem, against a backdrop of fading familial legacy and shifting social
dynamics. At the start of this work, the narrative introduces the Fuller family, who have lived in High Tilt for nearly three hundred years, detailing their gradual decline from landowners to struggling farmers. James Fuller, recently widowed, tries to instill religious values in his children while dealing with their diverging paths, particularly Robert, who presents a rebellious attitude in contrast to his dutiful brother Clem. Tensions simmer during a family gathering as they prepare to attend a revival meeting, highlighting the differences in the siblings' behaviors and beliefs, setting the stage for future conflicts and character development.
