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:
?A memoir you read with the same breathlessness as you read the most gripping of novels? - iNews
?Astonishing ? a story that brims with life and hard-won hope? - Sunday Times
?Fantastic. Could have been me. Could have been you. Could have been anyone? - Lee Child
When Tracy King was twelve she was exorcised.
Unfortunately, the demons that beset Tracy could not be so easily displaced.
While her life was filled with creativity, curiosity, and love, it was also constricted by poverty, by Tracy?s father?s alcoholism and her mother?s agoraphobia.
By the time she turned twelve Tracy?s father had been killed, her sister taken into care and her mother ensnared by the promises of born-again Christianity.
This is the story of an ordinary family trapped in a broken system. It is a story that could happen to anyone without the tools to transform their circumstances.
But it is also a tale with a twist. And one full of humour and hope.
Because with courage, perseverance and self-education, Tracy learnt to think for herself and found her way out.
