Da dietro la porta chiusa, l'uomo urla: "Andatevene, non avete niente a che fare qui. " "Aprite, sono il messaggero della Morte". Con l'arrivo della primavera nella cittadina montana albanese di B, emergono strane cose nel disgelo. I rapinatori di banche colpiscono la Banca Nazionale. Vecchi terrori vengono ripescati dal naufragio della storia. E segreti di Stato ultra-esplosivi minacciano di inondare l'intera nazione. Mark, un artista, vede i ritmi pacifici della sua vita sconvolti dall'amore antico e dalla barbarie moderna e dalla particolare brutalità di un paese sorpreso e diviso dalla sua nuova libertà.

Ismail Kadare, born in 1936 in the mountain town of Gjirokaster, near the Greek border, is Albania's best-known poet and novelist. Since the appearance of The General of the Dead Army in 1965, Kadare has published scores of stories and novels that make up a panorama of Albanian history linked by a constant meditation on the nature and human consequences of dictatorship. His works brought him into frequent conflict with the authorities from 1945 to 1985. In 1990 he sought political asylum in France, and now divides his time between Paris and Tirana. He is the winner of the first ever Man Booker International Prize.
