Kadare heads foreign fiction prize longlist
The first international Booker prizewinner, Ismail Kadare, heads the longlist for the 2007 Independent foreign fiction prize. The Albanian novelist's latest book, a dark political thriller set in the twilight of Enver Hoxha's dictatorship called The Successor, is nominated as part of a longlist for the £10,000 award which spans the globe.

If literary prizes thrive on controversy, then the first International Man Booker has got off to a roaring start. The three (appropriately international) judges awarded the prize, and a cool £60,000, to the Albanian novelist Ismail Kadare - a writer who had defected from the odious Maoist regime of Enver Hoxha in 1990.
