Mildred Pierce
ISBN: 9780679723219 / Angielski / Miękka / 304 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In Mildred Pierce, noir master James M. Cain creates a novel of acute social observation and devasting emotional violence, with a heroine whose ambitions and sufferings are never less than recognizable.

She used those attributes to survive a divorce and poverty and to claw her way out of the lower middle class. But Mildred also had two weaknesses: a yen for shiftless men, and an unreasoning devotion to a monstrous daughter.

ISBN: 9780996634151 / Angielski / Miękka / 148 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

Poe stands among the best of American storytellers. He is widely known to be the inventor of the...
