Zum Tee
ISBN: 9783803133403 / Niemiecki / Twarda / 2021 / 80 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. »Der unwiderstehliche Reiz dieser Mini- oder Monodramen liegt vor allem darin, dass die Reden der Figuren immer gleichermaßen viel verdrängen und verbergen, wie sie selbst aussprechen, sodass wir stets herausgefordert sind, uns einen eigenen Reim darauf zu machen.
