Laulu tulipunaisesta kukasta on Suomen taiteen kultakauden kirjailijan Johannes Linnankosken tunnetuin teos. Vuonna 1905 julkaistu kirja on ensimmäisiä suomalaisia bestseller-kirjoja. Laulu tulipunaisesta kukasta pohjautuu Don Juanin taruun. Kirja kertoo nuoresta Olavi Koskelasta, joka riitautuu vanhempiensa kanssa ja pestautuu tukkilaisporukkaan. Matkan varrella hän hurmaa lukuisia naisia, jotka hän kuitenkin hylkää tukkilaisporukan jatkaessa matkaansa. Kirjan tapahtumat sijoittuvat Linnankosken nuoruuden maisemiin Askolaan Vakkolan kylään 1800-luvun loppupuolelle. (from Wikipedia)
