| Summary | "Hädän hetkellä" by J. O. Åberg is a historical novel written in the early 20th century. The narrative is set in Sweden during the late 18th century, focusing on the tensions surrounding a Danish invasion and the personal conflicts within a small community. The story revolves around the characters of Briitta Kron, her beautiful granddaughter Agda, and Granmar, a skilled weaponsmith during this turbulent period, as they navigate love, loyalty, and the looming threat of war. The opening of the novel introduces readers to a quaint setting in Göteborg in 1788, where Agda lives with her grandmother, Briitta. The relatives experience tension over Agda’s romance with Granmar, who is renowned for crafting weapons. As the threat of a Danish invasion looms, Granmar rallies townsfolk with words of bravery, igniting hope and courage amidst growing panic. Conflicts arise with Briitta, who disapproves of Agda's relationship, leading to a series of personal and external challenges that set the stage for the ensuing drama of love and conflict against a historical backdrop.
