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.

Long description:
Literature, images, and metaphor are often where most of a nation’s history are embedded. A study of modern Kurdish literature highlights a fealty to a rich literary past and a rich source of historiography. The articles in this volume address many facets of the literary in the Kurdish world: proverbs, feminist literature, and resistance in literary works, poetry, prose, etc. In the end, the volume offers a general paradigm of the complex literary framework of the Kurds, their continuous resistance for nationhood in their history, and their modern reinventing of the self. An overview of some of the works in modern Kurdish literature points to both asymmetry and commonality in comparative literary studies. These works highight the thematic reach in Kurdish literary studies.
Academic studies on Kurdish literature are meagre in the English language. This volume of original essays fills an undesirable gap in our knowledge about various facets of Kurdish culture and literature. It is an invaluable contribution to Kurdish literary studies, offering a range of kaleidoscopic subjects covering various genres of Kurdish literature, from folklore to modern nationalism, literature as resistance, music as literature, and position of women in Kurdish society. It is a pleasure to recommend this fascinating collection to anyone interested in the literary history of Kurdish people.
