Translated by Barbara Bray from the French version of the Albanian
by Jusuf Vrioni At the heart of the Sultan's vast empire stands the
mysterious Palace of Dreams. Inside, the dreams of every citizen
are collected, sorted and interpreted in order to identify the
'master-dreams' that will provide the clues to the Empire's destiny
and that of its Monarch. An entire nation's consciousness is thus
meticulously laid bare and at the mercy of its government... The
Palace of Dreams is Kadare's macabre vision of tyranny and
oppression, and was banned upon publication in Albania in 1981.
