Synopsis "El Tiempo de las Cabras"

Based on a seemingly trivial event in recent Balkan history, this fable about the history and spirit of the Balkans highlights the dangers of ideologies and the stoicism with which the region's people have always endured tyranny. The novel's narrator is the son of exiled Albanians and he sets out to catalog his father's library. When he discovers a collection of books related to goats, he remembers the events he witnessed during his childhood shortly after his family settled in Macedonia. During that time, just after the end of World War II, the new government worked tirelessly to create a great proletariat in a country that had until then been mostly rural. Shepherds were forced to move to the cities, and soon these were invaded by the goats that the shepherds refused to abandon. When the government ordered the extermination of the goats, they did not foresee the problems it would cause in the daily lives of the citizens. Basada en un episodio aparentemente trivial de la reciente historia balcánica, esta fábula sobre la historia y el espíritu de los Balcanes resalta el peligro de las ideologías y el estoicismo con que el pueblo de la región ha soportado siempre las tiranías. El narrador de la novela es hijo de exiliados albaneses y se dispone a catalogar la biblioteca de su padre. Al descubrir en ella una colección de libros relacionados con las cabras, evoca los acontecimientos que presenció durante su niñez poco después de que su familia se instalara en Macedonia. En aquella época, justo al terminar la Segunda Guerra Mundial, el nuevo régimen trabajaba con ahínco para crear una gran clase proletaria en un país hasta entonces rural. Los pastores fueron obligados a instalarse en las ciudades y pronto éstas fueron invadidas por las cabras que los pastores se negaron a abandonar. Cuando las autoridades decretaron el exterminio de las cabras no se dieron cuenta de los problemas que causarían en la vida cotidiana de los ciudadanos.
