Pilgrims of the Air: The Passing of the Passenger Pigeons
ISBN: 9781907903656 / Angielski / Twarda / 2017 / 242 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. This is a story of a scarcely credible abundance, of flocks of birds so vast they made the sky invisible.

Studies of Irish fiction are still scanty in contrast to studies of Irish poetry and drama. Attempting to fill a large critical vacancy, Irish Novels 1890-1940 is a comprehensive survey of popular and minor fiction (mainly novels) published between 1890 and 1922, a crucial period in Irish cultural and political history. Since the bulk of these sixty-odd writers have never been written about, certainly beyond brief mentions, the book opens up for further exploration a literary landscape, hitherto neglected, perhaps even unsuspected. This new landscape should alter the familiar perspectives on...
