Do Penance or Perish: Magdalen Asylums in Ireland
ISBN: 9780195174601 / Angielski / Miękka / 2004 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Frances Finnegan traces the development of Ireland's Magdalen Asylums--homes that were founded in the mid-nineteenth century for the detention of prostitutes undergoing reform. The inmates of these asylums were discouraged-and many forcibly prevented-from leaving and sometimes were detained for life.

Their hair was cropped, and they were made to wear drab and shapeless clothing. Forbidden to mention their past lives, their children taken away, the inmates...

A Complicated War: The Harrowing of Mozambique
ISBN: 9780520082663 / Angielski / Miękka / 1992 / 325 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych.

Before going to Mozambique, William Finnegan saw the war, like so many foreign observers, through a South African lens, viewing the conflict as apartheid's "forward defense." This lens was shattered by what he witnessed and what he heard from Mozambicans, especially those who had lived with the bandidos armado, the "armed bandits" otherwise known as the Renamo rebels. The shifting, wrenching,...
