Nikolai Gogol's The Overcoat and Selected Stories - Special Edition
ISBN: 9781934255872 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 298 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. One of the most influential short stories ever written, Nikolai Gogol's ''The Overcoat'' first appeared in 1842 as part of a four-volume publication of its author's Collected Works.
