Why don't you give exact delivery time?
Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

A unique edition of one of Thomas Mann's most significant cultural essays which reflect on environmentalism, the degradation of nature, the challenges facing Western civilization and democracy, wealth disparity, Islamophobia and, indirectly, anti-Semitism.
MoreLong description:
Only edition in print
Written immediately after his return from his first trip to America in June 1934, A Voyage at Sea with Don Quixote follows the author's observations about life aboard a Dutch vessel bound for New York, interspersed with remarks on his reading of Cervantes's immortal novel. Using Don Quixote as a springboard, Mann reflects on a number of urgent topics: art, literature, religion, the artist's freedom of conscience and the misuse of technology.
The result is an engaging dialogue between past and present, an offbeat, witty travelogue of a voyage undertaken during the Great Depression, a creative tour de force that will delight and amuse in equal measure all those wishing to experience a lesser-known facet of the great German novelist's oeuvre.
