    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:

    Urgent, meditative, and searching, Thank You for Staying with Me is a collection of essays that navigates the complexities of home, the vulnerability of being a woman, mother-daughter relationships, and young motherhood in the conservative and religious landscape of the Ozarks. Using cosmology as a foil to discuss human issues, Bailey Gaylin Moore describes praying to the sky during moments of despondency, observing a solar eclipse while reflecting on what it means to be in the penumbra of society, and using galaxy identification to understand herself. During a collision of women’s rights, gun policy, and racial tension, Thank You for Staying with Me is a frank and intimate rumination on how national policy and social attitudes affect both the individual and the public sphere, especially in such a conservative part of the United States.
     

    Thank You for Staying with Me isn’t just a great book; it is a necessary one. Bailey Gaylin Moore’s writing is as powerful as writing the hard truth gets. She grew up in the Ozarks, a conservative part of this country, but what happened to her there could have happened anywhere—and does. I was bowled over by the immediacy of her prose and moved by the magical grace of her blessings. This is astonishing writing.”—Abigail Thomas, New York Times best-selling author of What Comes Next and How to Like It
