ISBN: 9780415542494 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 314 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych.

Along with this sense of freedom and voluntary migration comes a paradox-that of living in two worlds and negotiating the pleasures and agonies that come with living in exile. For the new African immigrant, the primary factor motivating migration is the desire for a better life...
