Juha is a novel by Finnish writer Juhani Aho, published in 1911. It is considered one of Aho's most important works: after its publication, Aho consolidated his role as the "national writer" of Finland.[2] The novel is at once characterized as one of his most classical and most modern works. Although taking the form of an epic, Juha does not lack drama in its plot.

Hannes Närhi played Juha in Tapiovaara's film, Mathias Taube in Stiller's film, Eino Kaipainen in Särkkä's film and Sakari Kuosmanen in Kaurismäki's film. Based on Juha, Mikko Roiha directed a dance theater work of the same name, which premiered at Korjaamo in January 2010.[3]
