Book No. 3 (2013): THE ACCIDENT

The Accident (a novel by Ismail Kadare)

It all starts with the passengers of a cab trying to kiss. Then the accident happens. The investigation that follows leads to uncovering a web of politics of deceit, terrorism, lies, and murder. The best part of the book is the accident, which is written in a precisely suspenseful narrative; it's downhill from there. The investigation part is confusing. I haven't recovered from confusion although everything makes sense in the end. 

I've read great novels by Ismail Kadare. This is not one of those.
