Changing Places
ISBN: 9780140170986 / Angielski / Miękka / 1979 / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Euphoric State University with its whitestone, sun-drenched campus and England's damp red-brick University of Rummidge have an annual professorial exchange scheme, and as the first day of the last year of the tumultuous sixties dawns, Philip Swallow and Morris Zapp are the designated exchangees.

Changing Places is a hilarious send-up of academic life, intellectual fashion, sex, and marriage by a...

Ginger, You're Barmy
ISBN: 9780099554134 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. When it isn't prison, it's hell.
Or at least that's the heartfelt belief of conscripts Jonathan Browne and Mike 'Ginger' Brady. For this is the British Army in the days of National Service, a grimy deposit of post-war gloom. An endless round of kit layout, square-bashing, shepherd's pie 'made with real shepherds' and drills is relieved only by the occasional lecture on firearms or V.D. The reckless, impulsive Mike and the more pragmatic Jonathan adopt radically different attitudes to survive this two-year confiscation of their freedom, with dramatic consequences. When it isn't prison, it's hell.
