Summary "Toteutuneita unelmia: Neljä kertomusta" by August Strindberg is a collection of short stories written in the early 20th century. The work explores themes of disillusionment and the complexities of human experience, capturing emotions and events from a range of characters’ perspectives. This collection appears to blend narrative styles and may include elements reflecting Strindberg's personal struggles with identity, existential thoughts, and societal critique. At the start of this collection, we are introduced to various aspects of Strindberg's narrative style through rich imagery and observations of diverse characters. The opening includes a poignant preface where Strindberg critiques over-civilization and questions the direction of societal progress, hinting at his broader philosophical inquiries. The story “Omantunnonvaivoja” depicts a troubled officer wrestling with the consequences of his actions during war, grappling with guilt and self-identity. He faces a moral dilemma as he reflects on the violence around him, the nature of duty, and the impact of his decisions, encapsulating Strindberg's themes of conflict both within individuals and society at large.
