Abstract

The work is about the famous Georgian writer Levan Gotua and his extraordinary short story "The Roadless Caravan", which depicts the last days of the life of Giorgi Saakadze who is the "Great Mouravi" of Georgia. It is clear that the author respects and awaits this great man. His personality is still unknown. Even today, it wasn't clear who he was: a patriot or a traitor to his homeland. An enemy or a public hero?
Levan Gotua considers him one of the most unhappy, pathetic people who brought the enemy army to Georgia but then sacrificed his son's life to protect Georgia's interests. At the same time, the story of hostility and friendship between the Turkish Iskander and Georgian Gorgasali is very interesting.
