Fictional literature is a kind of literature that is usually narrative in the form of romance, story and short stories and fiction.

Absurdism is one of the most effective movements in the contemporary Persian fiction. This process has affected parts of contemporary Persian story with elements such as despair and depression, feeling emptiness and futility, death and the lack of identity. The veins of this kind of thinking are evident in the works of some contemporary story writers, such as, Sadegh Hedayat, Bahram Sadeghi and Sadegh Choubak who noted that their major works reflect the Absurd thoughts. Gholamhossein Sa'edi is also one of the writers whose works reveal clearly the prevailing atmosphere of society as well as Persian writing in the forties. The evaluation of his works explains the manifestations of the current of futility in the contemporary stories. The present study examines the components of Absurdity in Sa'edi's works. For this purpose, the series of stories: ” vahemehaye bi nam o neshan, shabneshinie bashokooh, azadaran e bayal and tars o larz” were analyzed and analyzed. Some of the components of Absurdism in his works are prominent and they can be found in any collection in the various degrees. All of these works include the void fears, entangles and psychological problems, hopelessness and death-thinking.

Nihilism is the denial and sometimes the whole of life. This idea dates back to ancient times and emerged in the Middle Ages, but it has been reorganized in modern times. Nietzsche, Kafka, and Emil Zola's students at the School of Naturalism paved the way. In today's philosophical and literary naturalism, there are features that overlap with some of the non-authoritarian components and perspectives. Choubak's stories are full of naturalistic mixes and teachings. Naturalism, which has led to a passive inhumanity in Chubak's thought and vision, as it negates society and life, it offers no choice but to go out of this circle of astonishment and confusion. Although naturalism is passive in some respects, it is not necessarily absurd. The question that arises in Sadegh Choubak's work is whether to combine these passive naturalistic aspects with some nihilistic approaches that keep the writer and the reader as spectators. This article is an attempt to represent this intertwining that is sometimes difficult to discern between the two-naturalism and nihilism-in Chubak's works.

Modernism, in its simplest form, is as follows: transformation in all dimensions of intellectual and social life of the contemporary human. In contemporary era, economic and industrial growth has changed the traditional norms and values in human societies. Since literature reflects the whole view of the community, it is naturally affected by social change. In company with the emergence of modern art and literature in other countries, Arabic works were also influenced by these developments. But, unfortunately, there is few critical and normative debate on this issue. With the advent of modern literature, the standards governing literary works have changed. One of the broadest literary types influenced by modernism is the novel. One of the greatest literary types influenced by modernism is the novel. The novel “ The Season of Migration to the North” is the work of Tayyeb Saleh's, a Sudanese storyteller, in whom the author tried to influence the components of modernism and creates a Post-colonial work. The present study emphasis on the descriptive-analytical method, analyzing the components of modernism like poetics, anachronism, visibility angle variation, reality merging with imagination, and so on. The findings indicate that the poetics and anachronism are one of the most prominent components of the novel.
