Summaries

A man approaching his thirties works as a weaver for an old man with whom he has lived since the age of fourteen. His host mistreats him and the young man having complained about this outside, the old man slaps him and overwhelms him with reproaches. Unable to bear it any longer, the weaver thinks of killing him in his sleep.—Ulf Kjell Gür
