Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 8-10 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) Elizabeth Richmond is almost too quiet to be believed, with no friends, no parents, and a job that leaves her strangely unnoticed. But soon she starts to behave in ways she can neither control nor understand, to the increasing horror of her doctor, and the humiliation of her self-centred aunt. As a tormented Elizabeth becomes two people, then three, then four, each wilder and more wicked than the last, a battle of wills threatens to destroy the girl and all who surround her. 'The Bird's Nest' is a macabre journey into who we are, and how close we sometimes come to the brink of madness.
