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:
"
Gothic London: Occult Societies and Ghostly Whispers is the first in depth study of the capital and its gothic and occult organizations and individuals. It is also a book filled with the uncertainties and otherworldliness of the London landscape. It contains whispers and rituals, strange apparitions, apocalyptic visions, alien voices, dark shadows, vampiric dreamscapes, and uncanny vanishings; this is a London where the material hides the immaterial and where both exist at the same time on different etheric plains. This is, indeed, the London of the occult, not merely the London of astral projections into outer planes of consciousness or even to outer-space planets, but also underground travel in the labyrinths of the Tube network and time-warped visions of apocalyptic endings. This is also the London of the occulted or hidden, which waits to be revealed behind the facades of concrete or glass.
