"Conspiracy" by the writer Ben Blushi, the best-selling book at the Book Fair, with 2,500 copies

The novel "Conspiracy" by Ben Blushi is the best-selling book at the Book Fair in Tirana. The Book Fair in Tirana this year held its 26th edition at the Palace of Congresses, where "Conspiracy" is the best-selling book with 2,500 copies. This is reported by the Albanian Publishers Association, which states that it has addressed all publishers to provide figures for the sale of books this year at the fair. The Association of Albanian Publishers states that the novel "Komploti" with 2,500 copies is the best-selling book at the fair, but the book behind it was by a large margin. "After the end of the 26th Tirana Book Fair, we asked all the publishers to give us figures for book sales at their stands. Only a small part have given us answers. Some have only given us lists of sold titles or authors, but very few accompanied by figures. According to the data, the best-selling book is the writer Ben Blushi's novel "The Conspiracy", published by the publishing house "Pegi", with 2500 copies. The next book that comes after it is by a very large margin", says the Albanian Publishers Association in a post on the Facebook social network. The Book Fair started on November 14 and continued until the 19th of this month. The events of the newest novel by the writer Ben Blushi take place in 2044, when a large Afghan community has been created in Albania, while the Albanian population has decreased considerably. The Afghans, who have almost become a state within a state, want to invade Kosovo to create a bigger state, or a new Afghanistan in the middle of Europe. A plan that the Albanians surprisingly do not like, but they do not have the strength to oppose it. The alignment of America and Russia in this conflict between Albanians and Afghans could cause a Third World War. In this game also enter three cracked Jews who, for various reasons, try to weave a conspiracy to prevent the invasion of Kosovo by Albania and the latter's alliance with America. The three Jews will play to the end all the threads of a conspiracy, the end of which will be surprising and unimaginable for everyone.
