The story “The Rattrap” is set amidst the iron ore rich area of Sweden. It has figured as a legend of that country.
The story is told somewhat in the manner of a fairy tale. That is why, it keeps entertaining the reader or listener
from its beginning to end, and also sends a universal theme.
The rattrap peddler is imagined to be making the small rattraps of wire. He is seen going around selling the
rattraps of wire. Yet he finds himself unable to pull on with life, so he resorts to begging and small thievery. The
old crofter who entertained him in his cottage with supper, tobacco, game of cards and amusing talks of his past,
was robbed by that peddler.
But the world rattrap of the forest caught him and he was about to meet his death there. The hammer strokes
sound was heard by him through earth. He reached the Ramsjo Ironworks. The ironmaster mistook him his old
regimental comrade. The peddler was again tempted for getting Kroner but this time he was caught. He was a
stranger and not the captain.
Then the young girl Edla Willmanson came to rescue him. She treated him very friendly with understanding and
love all day long on Christmas Eve. It awakened the essential goodness of the peddler who also behaved with
them as if he was a real captain and no more a thief.
