Nearly News: Satire Stories Seeking Significance 2006-2014
ISBN: 9781511441919 / Angielski / Miękka / 230 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Good satire is hard to find. It's even harder to write. While this is not a complete guide teaching all of the intricacies of writing satire, it does provide some biting satire and an explanation behind each story. The purpose of many of the articles was to show human flaws but not necessarily to solve problems. You can read right-wing rags or liberal laments for that. While most of the book is written as news articles, you will also find interviews with God and Satan, a sermon, and several opinion pieces from various voices. While nobody is a clear winner in this book, you might note the...

ISBN: 9781505510515 / Hiszpański / Miękka / 282 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. En los anos 70 muchos deseaban la muerte del general Franco, sobre todo los que lo acusaban de haber sido un dictador y de haber suprimido las que ellos llamaban libertades. Al fin le llego la hora, al general, como nos llegara a todos, y aquella gente dio un suspiro de alivio y nos vendio la idea de que desde aquel momento, con la recien estrenada Democracia, todo seria 'el mundo feliz'. En cierto sentido lo ha sido, el mundo feliz socialista que en los anos 50 nos habia descrito Aldous Huxley en su libro inmortal. El mejor de todos los mundos posibles, como habia dicho otro filosofo antes...

It will no doubt confuse...
