Stalinism, that particularly brutal phase of the Communist
experience, came to an end in most of Europe with the death of
Stalin in 1953. However, in one country - Albania - Stalinism
survived virtually unscathed until 1990. The regime that the
Albanian dictator Enver Hoxha led from 1944 until his death in 1985
was incomparably severe. Such was the reign of terror that no
audible voice of opposition or dissent ever arose in the Balkan
state and Albania became isolated from the rest of the world and
utterly inward-looking. Three decades after his death, the spectre
of Hoxha still lingers over the country, yet many people - inside
and outside Albania - know little about the man who ruled the
country with an iron fist for so many decades. This book provides
the first biography of Hoxha available in English. Using unseen
documents and first-hand interviews, journalist Blendi Fevziu
pieces together the life of a tyrannical ruler in a biography which
will be essential reading for anyone interested in Balkan history
and communist studies.
