بیابان: داستان یک سفر الفارسية 1444

This work by Anton Chekhov, first published in 1888, tells the story of the first and formative journey of a young boy named Yeryoshka—a journey that begins with his running away from school and gradually marks the end of his imaginative childhood world.

Traveling with his uncle and several companions, Yeryoshka encounters a variety of vivid and diverse characters along the way, and through these encounters he undergoes new and unsettling experiences. Yet the most enduring and extraordinary presence in the story is the steppe itself, which Chekhov renders as a living, dynamic character, brought to life with all its wild beauty and natural grandeur.

For Yeryoshka, this journey is also an inner one. In the heart of the steppe, he comes face to face with fundamental human concepts such as love, fear, loneliness, and death, taking an inevitable step toward maturity and awareness. The story is a poetic and reflective portrayal of the passage from childhood into the complex world of adulthood.
