Summary "Les roses d'Ispahan: La Perse en automobile à travers la Russie et le Caucase" by Claude Anet is a travel account written in the early 20th century. The text recounts a remarkable journey undertaken by the author and his companions as they navigate from Romania to Persia, specifically Ispahan, using automobiles in a time when such feats were filled with challenges and adventures. The narrative promises to detail not just the landscapes of Russia and the Caucasus, but also the experiences, obstacles, and the cultural richness encountered along the way. The opening of the narrative sets the stage for this adventurous journey, beginning with the excitement and preparation for the trip. Anet introduces his fellow travelers, including two spirited young women and various companions who embody a mix of courage and enthusiasm. The author explains his motivations for the journey, emphasizing the exhilaration of travel and discovery while foreshadowing the difficulties they will face—from rough roads to unexpected delays. As they depart from Bucharest and embark on their journey through Bessarabia, the initial chapters vividly describe the group’s interactions, the state of their automobiles, and the colorful yet challenging landscapes they traverse, establishing a blend of humor and resilience that defines their expedition into the unknown.
