Blame and guilt and the burden of carrying them are the ingredients which Rimminen mixes to create a gentle and beautiful treat. People who become upset along the way include the property manager, the caretaker s wife and the thoroughly nasty Tietäväinen, who regards Lyy as nothing but a criminal. Every new attempt at interaction shrivels and becomes part of a series of damaging collisions which drive him into an even worse quandary.

The chronically taciturn Lyy does nothing to help himself.

The kan garoo court of the property management company has no doubt about the identity of the guilty party. When the neighbours get together to celebrate the solar eclipse, the party goes horribly wrong. Only one of them, a young boy, appears to have formed an attach ment to Lyy. He goes on drives, lives in a block of flats in Helsinki and keeps his neighbours at an arm s length. The gentleman is getting old quietly and doesn t expect much from life. Acquaintances call Mr Lyysälä simply Lyy though he doesn t really know many people.
