"Suuri rikos" by Kössi Kaatra is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story explores class struggle during Finland's civil war, focusing on the life of Kulmala, a working-class man caught in the midst of the conflict.

The opening of the book introduces the dire conditions in
Kulmala's environment, where hunger and darkness plague the lives of the working class. The narrative portrays Kulmala's internal conflict regarding the looming class warfare and his unwillingness to engage in violence. As the story unfolds, it reveals his wife's urging for him to partake in the fighting, juxtaposed against his hesitance.
