Ismail Kadare [Albanian novelist] - 3 novels

ISMAIL KADARE (b. 1936) is a best-selling Albanian writer and a leading literary figure in his country since the 1960s. His works have been translated into more than thirty languages. The London newspaper, The Independent, wrote: "He has been compared to Gogol, Kafka and Orwell. But Kadare's is an original voice, universal yet deeply rooted in his own soil."

In 2009 he received the Principe de Asturias de las Letras in Spain. He has been mentioned as a possible recipient for the Nobel Prize in Literature several times.
