For our non-fiction read about Albania, Mud Sweeter than Honey by Margo Rejmer plunges the reader into Albanian communism. It's an extraordinary portrait of a nation that won't leave you indifferent. A gripping literary reportage of an unknown little country with a unique legacy.

An essential read for those who would like to embark on a world voyage. Explore your world, know your world.
