Free

Experience life in one of the world's most isolated and communist countries through the eyes of Lea Ypi. Albania was a place of queuing, scarcity, political executions, and secret police, but for Lea, it was home. Witness the fall of the Berlin Wall in 1990 and the dismantling of Albania's communist regime, leading to new freedoms, but also economic collapse and violent conflict. Free is an engrossing memoir that questions the meaning of freedom and explores the spaces between ideals and reality.
