Synopsis
Ismail Kadare was born in 1936 in Gjirokastër, in the south of Albania. His first novel, The General of the Dead Army , established him as a major new voice in literature, and translations of his novels have since been published in more than forty countries. Chronicle in Stone , The Successor , and Agamemnon’s Daughter are all available from Doubleday Canada. In 2005 he won the inaugural Man Booker International Prize. David Bellos, Director of the Program in Translation at Princeton University, is the translator of seven of Ismail Kadare’s novels.
