Review:
Albania's most valuable literary export: the novels of Ismail Kadare.--Ken Kalfus "Village Voice Literary Supplement "
A major international novelist.--Herbert Mitgang "The New York Times "
Ismail Kadare's fiction has been compared with that of Gabriel Garcia Marquez. Certainly he induces that same ironic double-take in his readers, by means of the child's magical view of life that is larger than most adults realize--Leonie Caldecott "The New York Times "
Ismail Kadare is a writer who maps a whole culture--its history, its passion, its folklore, its politics, its disasters. He is a universal writer in a tradition of storytelling that goes back to Homer.--Professor John Carey, Committee Chair, Man Booker International Prize 2005
