Description
Albania's best-known novelist and poet Ismail Kadare, aged 87, tells AFP at his home in Tirana that he is still writing "all the time" and working on various projects. "Literature is everything to me, my life, the life of others, the life of humanity, and as such it's very important for all of us." Kadare, who rose to fame as a writer during the isolated communist regime of Enver Hoxha, was due to be awarded France's highest honour by Emmanuel Macron on Monday evening. IMAGES AND SOUNDBITES
