In Ismail Kadare's masterful novel, *The Palace of Dreams*, a young man named Mark-Alem enters the heart of an immense empire's bureaucracy. This enigmatic institution, the Palace of Dreams, is dedicated to collecting, analyzing, and interpreting the dreams of millions, seeking to divine the future and uncover hidden threats. As Mark-Alem ascends through its ranks, he becomes entangled in the Palace's intricate machinery, where the line between the subconscious and political reality blurs.
