    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:

    Drawn from ten different Indian languages, this collection of eighteen plays by women constitutes a significant intervention of gender in the discourse of Indian theatre. The volume brings together the work of eminent playwrights and writers: from Malatibai Bedekar, Swarnakumari Devi, Usha Ganguli, and Nabaneeta Dev Sen to Catherine Thankamma and C.S. Lakshmi 'Ambai' among others. Each play, in its own way, engages with social issues from a woman's
    perspective.
