Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych (Bez gwarancji dostawy przed świętami) The cannibal has played a surprisingly important role in the history of thought--perhaps the ultimate symbol of savagery and degradation-- haunting the Western imagination since before the Age of Discovery, when Europeans first encountered genuine cannibals and related horrible stories of shipwrecked travelers eating each other.

Bulgarian Truck: A Building Site Beneath the Open Sky
ISBN: 9781564786982 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych (Bez gwarancji dostawy przed świętami) The writer-narrator of "The Bulgarian Truck" has hit upon a new technique for constructing a novel, which he calls "a building site beneath the open sky," but he can't seem to persuade his more widely read wife, Marianne, a character from an earlier novel of his, that it's any good.

Meanwhile, the narrator's extra-marital affair with Milena, a young Slovak novelist who writes in French, is turning sour,...
