Albanian Tragicomedy – A Novel in Action

Act I – The Arrest
In the capital of surprises, the mayor descends from the throne not as the triumphant of his projects, but as the protagonist of a scenario that even the most courageous authors of “Noir Balkan” would not have imagined. The (non)grata opposition, surprised by the momentum of the action, forgets for a moment the proper protocol of reaction and goes from despair to trying to take credit – a popular sport in the land of Albanians.
Act II – “Destinies” linked internationally
While Meloni throws behind his back the cordial partnership with our CM, the latter remains eye to eye and tooth to tooth with the new reality: a “crime scene” table like a punching bag and a solemn promise that he will take everything into his own hands. As for the skeptics, he repeats it twice, as if to make it legally official.
Act III – Tirana in the obituary
105 years of the capital and a celebration that from homage to history turns into an elegy for an administration that fell prematurely. Unknown people with an equally unknown contribution to Tirana parade on stage, while the audience follows the spectacle without any certainty whether to applaud or remain silent with respect.
Act IV – SPAK’s “Bestseller”
A voluminous novel is published, compiled by the masters of investigation, where names and events collide with an intensity that leaves readers sleepless. If anyone suspected the unusual connections between art, law, sports and administration, the pages of this volume provide an answer without any filter.
Act V – Protest with delayed effect
A group of “citizens” who are separated by little more than a thread of hair from the very subjects of SPAK’s novel, gather in front of the institution’s headquarters. A protest full of feeling and clear demands: “Give us our money back or at least change the ending of the novel!” A “copycat” protest, perfect for reflecting the reality that often seems to us like we have seen it somewhere before.
Act VI – The Prime Minister and the Curse of the Unwritten Novel
In an unexpected twist of the plot, the PM, left on stage after all the other actors have dispersed to their chapters, addresses the authors of the detective novel with an epic warning. With a tone somewhere between threat and fatherly advice, he reminds them that every novel has its limits and that a sequel with him in the lead role would be a fatal mistake for the screenwriters.
“In this country I have written all the stories,” he seems to say between the lines, implying that any other hand that dares to hold the pen for him risks getting stuck in an unfinished chapter.
And so, with a frozen tension in the air, the scene closes, the audience remains suspended between fear and curiosity, and SPAK, situated between the canon of law and the law of the political canon, asks himself:
Should we write the novel, and if so, WHEN?
