The General of the Dead Army by Ismail Kadare (Farsi)Description
The General of the Dead Army is Ismail Kadare’s internationally acclaimed debut novel, first published in 1963. Set in post-World War II Albania, the narrative follows an Italian general and a priest tasked with exhuming and repatriating the remains of Italian soldiers who perished during the war. As they traverse the Albanian countryside, the mission evolves into a profound meditation on the futility of war, the burden of memory, and the haunting legacy of violence.
