Hunting for Enver Hoxha's Secret Body Double in Post-Communist Albania

In 1991, as Albania emerged blinking from four decades of paranoid Stalinist isolation under dictator Enver Hoxha, New Zealand novelist Lloyd Jones embarked on a surreal journey across a landscape littered with concrete bunkers. His mission: track down Petar Makal, a dentist rumored to have been surgically altered to serve as Hoxha's official body double.

Jones's narrative blends investigative detective work with atmospheric travel writing, uncovering how state surveillance and fear altered an entire nation's memory.

Why You’ll Love This Book

Lloyd Jones blends investigative detective work, Cold War history, and dark Balkan travel writing. A haunting literary travelogue for fans of Ryszard Kapuściński and Patrick Leigh Fermor.
