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:
This book ?plays up? stories of mostly unknown figures and their journeys through a life affected by movement, and a search for home. It engages with individuals and groups whose passions have carried the subjects through ?uncharted? or unhomely territories, here told in a series of ?tracks? depicting their roles in community memories and histories. Side A engages with individual journeys, such as Lewis, the American black literature book seller; the civil rights activist, Izzy, an American-Swedish folklorist; Eugene, a black classical pianist; and Pi, the Jew transported to Sweden during WWII. Side B focuses on communal histories and alternative educational and artistic spaces, addressing life writing and memory in German comic books, alternative educational spaces in Israel-Palestine and Africa, and ?small press passions? of zines/newsletter culture. Tellers and their interpreters are mediating identities where nationality, race, and class (and other markers of identity) have influenced selfhood and collective belonging ? revealing how individuals and outsider cultures have the power to influence dominant cultures and inspire societal change.

?Anders H?g Hansen book, Mix Tape Memories, is a book about largely unknown figures whose lives remained personal and who sought normality in contexts that picked at normality. Being unknown, information about many of these people's lives is very difficult to come by and so, this is a valuable collection of stories Anders has worked to present for us.?
