Stoyo Petkanov, the deposed Party leader, is placed on trial for crimes that range from corruption to political murder.

Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych (Bez gwarancji dostawy przed świętami) In his first collection of short stories, Barnes explores the narrow body of water containing the vast sea of prejudice and misapprehension which lies between England and France with acuity humor, and compassion. For whether Barnes's English characters come to France as conquerors or hostages, laborers, athletes, or aesthetes, what they discover, alongside rich food and barbarous sexual and religious practices, is their own ineradicable Englishness. The ten stories that make up Cross Channel introduce us to a plethora of intriguing, original, and sometimes ill-fated characters....

A práve esejistická časť je tento raz možno ešte hlbšia a radikálnejšia, ako v jeho... Neil je neúspešný herec a študent predmetu Kultúra a civilizácia, ktorý vedie profesorka Elizabeth Finch.
