Nakręcana pomarańcza
ISBN: 9788379980758 / Polski / Miękka / 2016 / 220 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 6-8 dni roboczych. Druga wersja językowa słynnej „Mechanicznej pomarańczy” Tym razem z anglicyzmami.

A sam powieść to przecież obok "1984" Orwella, "Nowego wspaniałego świata" Huxleya, czy "My" Zamiatina - najważniejsza współczesna...
