Prostituta

Rate this book
Prostituta is a magnificent collection of stories by celebrated Albanian writer, Teodor Keko. This is the first book of Teodor Keko translated into English. Written between the late '80s to mid '90s, these seventeen tales continue to remain relevant to this day. They display Keko’s complex world and unrivaled ability to see and seek the truth to help mankind learn from past mistakes. Keko’s stories range from humorous trips into strange existences to bittersweet tales of loss, from oppressive drills in utter despair to a lavish selection of human madness with a side of dark humor. Prostituta in its entirety offers a glimpse into the beautiful mind of a masterful writer whose ability to interpret the human struggles and moments of light will get any reader’s attention.

Ndoqi studimet e larta në Universitetin e Tiranës në degën e Gjuhës dhe Letërsisë Shqipe. Ne fillimet e tij, punoi nė organet e Lidhjes sė Shkrimtarėve dhe Artistėve, nė gazetėn "Drita" e mė pas nė revistėn "Nėntori". Gjatė kėtyre viteve ai mbetet njė nga bashkėpunėtorėt mė tė afėrt tė shtypit tė kohės, veēanėrisht revistės "Hosteni" dhe gazetės "Zėri i Rinisė", ku pėrmes penės sė tij tė hollė trajtoi probleme tė mprehta tė politikės kulturore dhe tema "tabu" pėr kohėn.
Pas botimit tė vėllimit tė parė me poezi nė vitin 1983, "Pas provimeve", nė harkun kohor tė 19 viteve, Teodor Keko do tė botojė 13 libra. Nė vitin 1987 boton vėllimin poetik "Fjala fishkėllen", nė 1990 poezitė "Zemra nuk ėshtė kėmishė" dhe romanin "Loja". Njė vit mė pas vėllimin me tregime e novela "Lajmėtarja e vdekjeve", nė 1994 romanin "Pretenca", nė 1995 romanin "Shėnimet e njė gruaje", nė 1996 vėlimin poetik "Unė tė kam dashur, por...", nė 1997 poemėn satirike "E tė tjera, e tė tjera..." dhe vėllimet me tregime e novela "Prostituta" e "12 shenjtore, njė profet dhe disa njerėz", nė 1998 tregimet dhe novelat "Made in Albania" dhe nė 2002, po njė vėllim tė tillė tė quajtur "Hollėsira fatale"
Deri nė fund tė jetės ai mbeti njė antikonformist, njė intelektual me kontribut tė veēantė nė proceset demokratike tė vendit dhe njė bohem i papėrsėritshėm.
