Summary "Kosken laulu : Avioliittotarina" by Ilma Virtala is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story centers around Sanelma, a woman grappling with deep-seated passions and memories, as she navigates the complexity of her marriage to Martti Pätevä while harboring feelings for another man named Sorjo. As the narrative begins, Sanelma reflects on her life, her emotions, and the significance of the river that weaves through her memories, ultimately setting the stage for a tale of love, longing, and self-discovery. The opening of the novel paints a vivid picture of a winter evening, with Sanelma walking by a flowing river and recalling profound memories triggered by the landscape. She experiences a whirlwind of emotions as she waits for Sorjo, the man who has stirred feelings within her heart. The passage deepens with her introspection, revealing her discontent in her marriage and the haunting presence of past moments shared with Sorjo. The contrast between the comforting yet stifling nature of her current life with Martti and the excitement of her memories with Sorjo suggests a brewing conflict that promises to evolve throughout the narrative. Sanelma's rich inner life and the moments of emotional turmoil serve to engage readers, creating a mixture of anticipation and empathy as her story unfolds.
