Summary "Jumalan teillä" by Bjørnstjerne Bjørnson is a novel likely written in the early 20th century. The story revolves around young boys navigating the challenges of adolescence, focusing on characters like Edvard Kallem and Ole Tuft as they explore themes of courage, fear, and moral dilemmas against the backdrop of their surroundings and the influence of their peers. The opening of the novel introduces readers to a fourteen-year-old boy standing on a mountainside, mesmerized by the view of a stormy sea and a calm sunset. He is filled with a mix of fear and curiosity, especially as he contemplates the ominous events occurring around him, including a devastating storm that has wreaked havoc on the local community. This sense of foreboding is compounded by societal fears of an impending apocalypse, as a local preacher has been proclaiming that the end is nigh. The boy's friend, Ole Tuft, also features prominently as a determined and compassionate character who aspires to become a missionary, showcasing his involvement in helping the sick and underprivileged, despite the challenges and mockery he faces from his peers. The early chapters set the stage for a deeper exploration of friendship, responsibility, and the struggle to define one's identity amidst external pressures.
