# Seitsemän veljestä

By Aleksis Kivi.

"Seitsemän veljestä" by Aleksis Kivi is a novel published in 1870. Seven unruly brothers clash with authority in their Finnish village and flee to the wilderness to escape the requirement to learn reading for church confirmation. Through years of hard labor, misadventures, and personal struggles in their isolated forest home, they gradually transform from social outcasts into responsible members of society. This groundbreaking work is considered Finland's first significant novel written in Finnish and has achieved the status of a national masterpiece. (Summary by Project Gutenberg, written by machine.)
