Sweet Dreams
ISBN: 9780571315925 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 192 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 8-10 dni roboczych.

The journey was undertaken not by a mystical reporter like St John, but by Howard Baker, an observer of much more modern outlook. He finds a city which offers rich opportunities for leisure and enjoyment - but one which also presents a moral and intellectual challenge. In short, a...

Heaven, the Book of Revelation tells us, is a city of pure gold, 1,500 miles high, and decorated in sapphire, amethyst, and emerald. According to the Koran, it is peopled with immortal youths and bashful virgins, and there are jeweled couches on which to recline and enjoy food and drink. But wouldn't most of us feel a little out of our element in such a place? What about a Heaven for ordinary, modern people? Howard Baker is waiting at a traffic light when suddenly he finds himself in a strange and... 'A man sits in his car at the traffic lights, waiting for them to go green...'

As the night goes on, the college port causes behaviour surprising in those in positions of political, academic or spiritual authority.
