Lady Gregory's Toothbrush
ISBN: 9780299180003 / Angielski / Twarda / 2002 / 128 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. In this remarkable biographical essay, Colm Toibin examines the contradictions that defined Lady Gregory, an essential figure in Irish cultural history.

Lady Gregory's...

Colm Toibin's second "lovely, understated" novel that "proceeds with stately grace" (The Washington Post Book World) about an uncompromising judge whose principles, when brought home to his own family, are tragic.
