Mr. Kadare was in Athens to present his latest books “Agamemnon Daughter” and “The Successor”, translated in the Greek language. The event was supported by Piraeus Bank, which operate in Albania through Tirana Bank.
Athens’s Mayor Nikitas Kaklamanis welcomed the Albanian writer, but had left the event protesting for Mr. Kadare's use of the word “Macedonia” as the name of the Balkan state which Greeks want to be called “Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia”.
