Pure
ISBN: 9780810150294 / Angielski / Twarda / 64 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Pure is a fierce, passionate series of meditations on experience and consciousness, morals and customs, and on the natural world that surrounds and shapes human life. Frost's poems bear the stamp of a thoroughly original artistic vision and style - they are discursive yet filled with concrete images; they inquire into moral issues - responsibility, pleasure, guilt, jealousy - without moralizing; they catch the echoes of western myths in domestic and quotidian events; they sharply diagnose relations between the sexes.
