Ways Of Escape
ISBN: 9780099282594 / Angielski / Miękka / 1999 / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 12 dni roboczych. With superb skill and feeling, Graham Greene retraces the experiences and encounters of his extraordinary life. His restlessness is legendary; as if seeking out danger, Greene travelled to Haiti during the nightmare rule of Papa Doc, Vietnam in the last days of the French, Kenya during the Mau Mau rebellion.

Lepší člověk si na okraji tohoto...
