«Libre» is Lea Ypi's memoir, published by Editorial Anagrama in paperback (328 pages, in Spanish).
At age eleven, Lea Ypi saw the Albanian communist regime fall in 1990, the last bastion of Stalinism in Europe. Her memoir weaves together school indoctrination, the crimes of the secret police, and the toppling of monuments to Stalin and Hoxha with a transition to democracy marked by emigration, corruption, and ruin.
The book belongs to the Panorama de narrativas collection, with translation by Cecilia Ceriani. Original title: Free. Coming of Age at the End of History.
For readers interested in memoirs, recent Eastern European history, and the contradictions of freedom after the end of communism.
