A searing story of love denied, then shattered under the chilling wheels of the state.
Now published in Britain for the first time, Agamemnon's Daughter was written in Albania in the 1980s and smuggled into France a few pages at a time. This spellbinding tale of a thwarted lover's odyssey through a single day reveals a world where fear is an instrument of power, but the individual survives despite the odds.
"The words of Ismail Kadare bloom on the pages of his new book, his dexterous plots and confident narratives standing unassailable." San Francisco Chronicle
"A magnificent achievement." Los Angeles Times
"Kadare's political courage made him a hero; his sense of irony and his powerful command of narrative are what make him a writer, the George Orwell of an Iron Curtain nightmare that is gone but not forgotten." Boston Globe
Translated by David Bellos
