Finnish Erämaan halki Wikipedia page about this book: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/In_Desert_and_Wilderness Produced by Juhani Kärkkäinen and Tapio Riikonen "Erämaan halki" by Henryk Sienkiewicz is a novel written in the early 20th century. This adventurous tale follows the story of a young boy named Stas Tarkowski and his eight-year-old friend Nel as they navigate the complex political landscape of Egypt while dealing with dangers posed by the Mahdist uprising and their own budding friendship. Through their journey, themes of bravery, loyalty, and the struggles against oppression emerge amidst a richly described backdrop of the desert and its inhabitants. The opening portion introduces us to Stas and Nel discussing the political turmoil related to Fatma's husband, Smain, who has ties to the Mahdi, a significant figure in the region during this period. Stas confidently assures Nel of their mutual safety, despite the perilous circumstances surrounding them. As their fathers—both engineers affiliated with the Suez Canal—prepare for distant travels, the children are filled with excitement over potential adventures. They soon learn that they will accompany their fathers, setting the stage for a series of expeditions across the Egyptian landscape, where Stas dreams of hunting big game and facing dangers that will test their courage.
