Autorenporträt

Ismail Kadare was born in Albania in 1936. His first novel, The General of the Dead Army, established him as a major international voice in literature. His work has since been translated into forty languages, and in 2005 he became the first winner of the Man Booker International Prize, for "a body of work written by an author who has had a truly global impact." He is the recipient of the highly prestigious Principe de Asturias de las Letras in Spain. David Bellos, Director of the Program of Translation at Princeton University, is also the translator of Georges Perec's Life A User's Manual , and the author of the celebrated book on translation, Is That A Fish In Your Ear?. He has translated seven of Kadare's novels.
