ISBN: 9788074742507 / Czeski / Miękka / 2019 / 200 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Ačkoli románovou biografii Ježíše Krista napsal klasik francouzské literatury před osmdesáti lety, neztratila nic ze své duchovní aktuálnosti.
„Přestože autor zpodobil Krista příliš podle svého, dobře ví, že jeho kniha šťastně znepokojila uspaná svědomí. Když máme co do činění s tímto světem, za který Kristus odepřel se modlit, pociťujeme takový stud, když o Něm mluvíme, že se musíme v myšlenkách zastavit před touto prověřenou moudrostí: vše se děje, jako by každý křesťan měl předem stanovený podíl na Otcově poli, který...

Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) Book jacket/back: Francois Mauriac--who won the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1952--is famous for his subtle character portraits of the French rural classes and for depicting their struggles, aspirations and traditions. The Woman of the Pharisees--one of Mauriac's most accomplished novels--is a penetrating evocation of the moral and religious values of a Bordeaux community.

One by one...
