    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:

    Das 12jährige Mädchen Zazie kommt aus ihrer Provinz für zwei Tage nach Paris und will endlich ihren Traum erfüllen: mit der Metro fahren. Die Tatsache, dass die Pariser Metro genau an diesem Wochenende streikt, fasst sie als persönliche Beleidigung auf. Zu Fuß wird sie nun Paris entdecken müssen. Einer der berühmtesten burlesken Romane von Queneau (1903-1976).

    Long description:

    Impish, foul-mouthed Zazie arrives in Paris from the country to stay with Gabriel, her female-impersonator uncle. All she really wants to do is ride the metro, but finding it shut because of a strike, Zazie looks for other means of amusement and is soon caught up in a comic adventure that becomes wilder and more manic by the minute. In 1960 Queneau's cult classic was made into a hugely successful film by Louis Malle. Packed full of word play and phonetic games, Zazie in the Metro remains as stylish and witty as ever.
