The Lost Steps by Alejo Carpentier (Farsi)

The Lost Steps follows a weary composer and intellectual who leaves behind his modern urban life to journey deep into the South American jungle in search of a rare musical instrument. As he travels further from civilization, he finds himself confronting not only the rawness of nature but also profound questions about art, authenticity, and the essence of human existence. Carpentier blends rich, lyrical prose with philosophical depth, offering a timeless reflection on the conflict between progress and primitivism, and the yearning for meaning in a disenchanted world.
