| Summary | "Louhilinna: Tarina vanhasta talosta" by Maila Talvio is a novel likely written in the early 20th century. The story revolves around the old mansion Louhilinna and the noble family that has owned it for centuries. The narrative explores themes of legacy, ghostly presences, and the interplay between past and present as it introduces the family members, notably the daughter Kaarina, against the backdrop of the mansion's history and its eerie surroundings. The opening of the book sets a vivid scene of Louhilinna, a grand yet ghostly estate steeped in history and mystery. Descriptions of the mansion's architecture, its imposing trees, and the aura of death that seems to surround it paint a picture of a place where the past lingers heavily. As the story unfolds, we are introduced to the characters, including the old caretaker Jere, the strict housekeeper Miina, and young Kaarina, who seems to embody innocence and a deep connection to the estate. The narrative hints at tragic events tied to the family and explores the emotional atmosphere of the household, setting the stage for conflict between the legacy of the past and the future of Louhilinna.
