Ghada al-Samman's Beirut '75: An Autobiographical Interpretation
ISBN: 9781541391819 / Angielski / Miękka / 80 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

ISBN: 9781618116284 / Angielski / Twarda / 180 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

This work assesses the level to which authors of indigenous Turkish detective fiction written between 1928 and 1945 attempted to aid in this process of transmission. Five series of this...
