The Lock on My Lips
ISBN: 9789956791088 / Angielski / Miękka / 234 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The Lock on My Lips foregrounds gender, narrative and identity in its representations.

The candidate of the new party, former detainee Pastor Mgei, wins the election, and thereby dethrones the so-called Chief of Chiefs. In The Green Cross of Kafira,...
