Common People: In Pursuit of My Ancestors
ISBN: 9780226420851 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 352 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. "Family history begins with missing persons," Alison Light writes in Common People.

Forever England: Femininity, Literature and Conservatism Between the Wars
ISBN: 9780415016612 / Angielski / Twarda / 1991 / 300 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych.

Boldly moving across the culture, from the highbrow novels of Ivy Compton-Burnett to the detective fiction of Agatha Christie, the author traces the making of a conservative national temperament...
