ISBN: 9780691173900 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 144 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych.

His colleagues resist her argument that human reason is overrated and that the...

Here and Now is the result of that proposal: an epistolary dialogue between two great writers who became great friends. Over three years their letters touched on nearly every subject, from sports to fatherhood, film festivals to incest, philosophy to politics, from the financial crisis to art,...
