edit data

Fatos Kongoli has recently become one of the most forceful and convincing representatives of contemporary Albanian prose.

He studied mathematics in China during the tense years of the Sino-Albanian alliance.

Kongoli chose not to publish any major works during the dictatorship. Rather than this, he devoted his creative energies at the time to an obscure and apolitical career as a mathematician, and waited for the storm to pass.

His narrative talent and individual style only really emerged, at any rate, in the nineties, since the fall of the communist dictatorship.

Quotes by Fatos Kongoli (?)

“Hapësirën njeriu e ka brenda vetes. Edhe lirinë, apo mungesën e lirisë. Mund të them se unë sot gjej lirinë time vetjake. Kaq.”

“Tek ajo shtepi nis dhe mbyllet gjithcka imja. Jashte saj ndihem si nje kermill qe ka dale nga guaska, e ka humbur dhe perpiqet me kot ta rigjeje. Nje kermill ne kerkim te guaskes se humbur...”

“Ekzistenca jonë është frikë. Sepse kur lindim, madje që kur ndodhemi në barkun e nënës e dimë që një ditë do të vdesim. Dhe vijmë në jetë me ankthin e vdekjes.”
― Fatos Kongoli, Te porta e shën Pjetrit
