The novel 'The File on H.' by Ismaíl Kadaré, translated by Ramón Sánchez Lizarralde, immerses the reader in a disturbing fable about totalitarianism and literary creation. Two Irishmen from New York arrive in Albania to investigate the connection between Albanian rhapsodes and the creation of the Iliad and the Odyssey, unleashing a stir that Kadaré uses to explore the suffocating atmosphere of the totalitarian regime. This edition has been revised by the translator, following the author's final edition after obtaining political asylum in France in 1990.
Ismail Kadare was an Albanian novelist, poet, essayist, screenwriter and playwright. He was a leading international literary figure and intellectual, focusing on poetry until the publication of his first novel, The General of the Dead Army, which made him famous internationally.
