Engenderings
ISBN: 9781849919418 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 206 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. 'Engenderings' is a collection of short and long poems which address the themes of identity across time and space in the context of uncertainty about the meaning of the human condition. The unifying thread running through these poems is an affirmation of what it means to be a person and to have feelings. The transcendent qualities of imagination, kindness and caring for others are given the longest shrift and viewed as shining like shooting stars in an otherwise largely dark universe.

Though Creon's actions prove disastrous and Antigone's are vindicated, the Antigone is no simple study in the excesses of...
