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.

Short description:
An anthology of plays by contemporary Latin American playwrights, translated into English for the very first time.
MoreLong description:
Six new plays from Latin America's most exciting and incisive playwrights, newly translated for an English-language audience.
From streetwise urchins with a sharp eye for political discourse in Chile to artists who dream of better futures amidst crisis in Perï¿1⁄2; from fairy-tale parodies of Princess Diana as an expression of gender-based violence to mundane, everyday acts of love amid hardship, Latin American Plays in Translation offers a unique insight into the concerns and creative responses of some of Latin America's leading contemporary playwrights.
Curated by Global Voices Theatre, this collection features plays originally presented at their popular live events at Arcola Theatre in 2018 (Global Female Voices), and the Roundhouse in 2019 (Global Latin American Voices), sharing the multiplicity and complexity of Latin American experiences. The plays include:
La Jana by Juan Pablo Aguilera Justiniano, translated by William Gregory (Chile)
A Ranch for the Lost Boys by Sebastiï¿1⁄2n Eddowes, translated by the playwright (Perï¿1⁄2)
The SAD Summers of Princess Diana by Carla Zuï¿1⁄2iga, translated by Fran Olivares (Chile)
She by Susana Torres Molina, translated by Gilda Bona (Argentina)
Nezahualcï¿1⁄2yotl Dreams in Mictlan York by Xavier Villanova, translated by Roberto Cavazos (Mï¿1⁄2xico)
Extraordinary Life by Mariano Tenconi Blanco, translated by Catherine Boyle (Argentina)
Complete with an introduction by Malï¿1⁄2 Ansaldo, international theatre producer and curator of the 2019 Global Latin American Voices event, as well as forewords from the translators of each play, Latin American Plays in Translation invites readers to discover these stories of gender, class, and society that speak to modern audiences.
