 The Légion d'honneur, the mayor of the Albanian capital, Tirana, is among Ismail Kadare's biggest fans. His name is Erion Vallier, and he spoke to me shortly before we came on air. I knew him personally quite well. As a young activist, I had just come back from my studies in the U.S., in the U.K., and he agreed to serve on our board. This was a protest movement, protest organization.
