About This Book

A five-act historical drama set during the 1808–1809 Finnish War stages an aristocratic household and military presence as they confront questions of honor, loyalty, love, and political duty. Private scenes and public tensions alternate while characters argue over reform, resistance, and the costs of action, and individuals struggle between personal desire and social obligation. Officers, a proud nobleman, lovers, servants, and rural figures personify the clash between conservative tradition and emergent political initiative, and their choices produce moments of courage, compromise, and loss against the continual presence of battlefield news and social upheaval.
