Harry: Romaani kansallisen herätyksen ajoilta

The narrative follows Harry amid a period of national awakening in a provincial port town, alternating comic social scenes and serious political debate. It opens with a satirical portrayal of a gentlemen's club and its annual masquerade, shows efforts to launch a Finnish-language newspaper under maisteri Tervo, and follows family crises, conversions, and public controversies including an influential article. Through vivid portraits of local elites and grassroots activists, the story examines language, power and personal change as private losses and political struggles reshape the community.
