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.

Essays on the Mexican Revolution and its literary and cultural legacies
The Mexican Revolution lives on in literature, film, song, and popular culture. An enduring part of the cultural memory of Mexican and Mexican American communities, the revolution has shaped—and continues to be shaped by—later generations' experiences and conceptions of history. This volume offers instructors a variety of vantage points for teaching the revolution, including the role of women as family protectors and soldiers, petroculture, the heroization of famous revolutionary figures, and contemporaneous corridos. Essays introduce students to comparative approaches framed by concepts of colonialism and borders. Several essays center the perspectives and experiences of Mexican American, Chicanx, and borderland communities, attending especially to remembrance and to the literary and cultural afterlives of the revolution.
This volume also contains discussion of the following authors and works: Chinua Achebe, Anthills of the Savannah; Mariano Azuela, Los de abajo; Nellie Campobello, Cartucho; Cristina Rivera Garza, Nadie me verá llorar; Martín Luis Guzmán, La sombra del caudillo; Mónica Lavín, Café cortado; Josefina Niggli, Soldadera; Ousmane Sembène, Le dernier de l'empire; Chano Urueta, Los de abajo.
