What brings Broken
April closer to The Time of the Goats is, in my opinion, their
universal dimension, their similar construction as a " character novel ",
the tragic nature of the character , the polyphonic composition
described by the re-appearance in various ethnographic, canonical, mythical and
ideological forms.
Regarding the work of Ismail Kadare, researcher
Ymer Çiraku says: " His pen creates a break with the narrative
styles of traditional literature, becoming more powerful, more concentrated and
with an existentialist tendency. From
work to work, Kadare becomes an explorer of the existential essences of the
individual and the nation, on a horizontal and vertical plane, with reflections
and stylistic macro and microstructurings, almost dizzying. "
