Teaching Beauty in DeLillo, Woolf, and Merrill
ISBN: 9781349370627 / Angielski / Miękka / 200 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. What happened to beauty?

Fragments of Union: Making Connections in Scottish and American Writing
ISBN: 9781349413645 / Angielski / Miękka / 339 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.
