Postwar Polish Poetry
ISBN: 9780520044760 / Angielski / Miękka / 180 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

The victory of Solidarity in August 1980 once again opened new vistas for a short time; the coup of December closed that chapter. It is too early yet to predict the impact these events will have on the future of Polish...

Can't you guess, my friends? What are they but rays from the crescents left by the nails of her lover pressing her in his passion, rays now luminous as the moonlight of a summer night?
