Summary "Elinan häät: seuranäytelmä" by Maila Talvio is a drama written in the early 20th century. This play revolves around the wedding of Elina, who is the daughter of a shoemaker's widow, and her interactions with various characters, including her groom, Vihtori, and their respective families and friends. The storyline likely delves into themes of love, societal expectations, and family dynamics, set in a rural Finnish context. The narrative follows the tensions and comedic elements that arise from the wedding preparations and the varied personalities of the attendees. Key characters include Elina, who grapples with the weight of her impending marriage; Vihtori, who is faced with the responsibility of taking over his family's estate, and other figures who contribute to the chaotic atmosphere, like Rinkin-Antti and Kokki-Vappu. As the plot unfolds, issues of tradition versus modernity, the desire for personal freedom, and the underlying comedy of the wedding festivities come to the forefront, ultimately celebrating love and community spirit amid the challenges.
