Albania

language ( Jan. 20, 2019)
Lying by the Adriatic Sea in the Balkan Peninsula of Easter Europe is the rich, beautiful and diverse country of Albania. Although some basic facts of this country are known around the world, it goes a lot deeper than it appears on the surface. It is full of interesting and unique culture facts, unusual superstitions, and a long history of suffering and triumph. When you read this book, you will learn more about these things. For example, why do Albanians leave their homes at twilight to walk on the roads of their towns? Why are scarecrows and teddy bears usually found impaled beside construction sites? How do Albanians say yes and no with body language? Why does the father of a bride give her groom a bullet sheathed in straw at the wedding ceremony? Who is Enver Hoxha, and how did he shape the country? These, and a lot of other interesting questions will be answered in this book, set with colorful pictures which will lead the reader on an unforgettable journey through this little-known but amazing country.
