Synopsis

edit

Torkel Gudmundson is the proud owner of a beautiful farm, called Paradise. His wife Hilda, however, longs to move back to the city, and Ruterberg, an engineer, wants to buy the farm from him because he believes there to be iron ore in the ground (which fact he keeps from Torkel).

Eventually, after Börje, Torkel's younger son, is saved from drowning in the river by Ruterberg, Torkel sells the farm. The family moves to the city, and there it runs into many hardships.[2]
