Lastuja I-III

Juhani Aho called his short prose pieces lastuja, the chips that fly from a carpenter's knife. This edition gathers the first three collections: scenes of country life, hunting and animal tales, childhood and school memories, sketches of Helsinki and sharp little satires, more than eighty pieces in all. This book uses the racial and other slurs of its period as written; the Book Guide explains these words where they occur.
