In such a spellbinding book, written in Albania and smuggled into France a few internet pages at a time in the 1980s, Ismail Kadare denounces with unusual force the machinery of any dictatorial regime, drawing us back again to the ancient origins of tyranny in Western Civilization. Through the waning years of Communism, a young worker for the Albanian state-controlled mass media agency narrates the story of his ill-fated love for the princess of any high-ranking formal. When he witness the ghostly image of Agamemnon-the ANCIENT GREEK LANGUAGE ruler who sacrificed his own princess for reasons of State-on the researching stand during a May Day celebration, he begins to suspect the full catastrophe of his devotion. Also included are "The Blinding Order", a parable of the Ottoman Empire about the uses of terror in authoritarian regimes, and "The Great Wall", a chilling duet between a Chinese language formal and a soldier in the invading military of the Tamerlane.
