Ismail Kadare Obstructed
Ismail Kadare E penguara
This book at first glance may seem like a novel, which talks about the nostalgia of Tirana. This nostalgia of mixed eras in the country’s capital takes on an extremely dramatic nuance when given through the vision of a girl who is forbidden to trespass in the capital. This is the 18-year-old girl, who also, like the ancient characters who rise up against fate, tries to overcome the obstacle of the state. In this latest novel, which constitutes one of the culmination of the author’s art, the clarity and luxurious style recall the diamond beauty, which often contrasts with the tragedy.
