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.

MoreLong description:
Using works by Hafid Bouazza, Najat El Hachmi, Tsj-bbe Hettinga, Emine Sevgi -zdamar, Le-la Slimani, Zadie Smith, and Kjell West-, this book looks at post-national feelings of belonging in contemporary European literature.
In their literary work and authorship, these authors turn to imagine larger worlds, within and beyond Europe, to escape the confinements of the national and to imagine communities created through connections and solidarities they choose to sustain.
This book analyses issues of voice, representation, history, memory, home, and cross-cultural solidarity in these authors' novels, stories, and poetry, finding attempts to shape literary worlds that escape the trappings of Europe's history and sustain into an uncertain future. In its innovative combination of perspectives from world literature, minority studies, and European studies, and reading across seven languages and cultures, this book shows the many worlds of European literature. Through exploring how these writers negotiate identity, borders, and culture in the late-twentieth and early-twenty-first centuries, this book makes visible a Europe in which identities can once again be defined outside the borders of the national.
