AGAMEMNON´S DAUGHTER

Agamemnon''s Daughter is a searing story of love denied, then shattered, under the chilling wheels of the state. It follows one day in the life of a young, unnamed journalist about to attend a celebratory May Day parade. His lover, Suzana, whose father''s political star is on the rise, has just left the journalist in a sort of political sacrifice. Kadare draws us into a land deprived of choice, a country under a reign of terror. Through the impeccably crafted, incisive tale, we are given a true sense of how hard it can be to remain human in a world ruled by fear and suspicion.
