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:
From the New York Times and Vanity Fair contributor (and daughter of Tom Hanks), comes a beautifully written, deeply felt memoir recounting the solo, cross-country journey she made along the Ten across the southwest: a mission to uncover both what harrowing violence may or may not have happened to her mother, but also, to look within and discover who she herself is &&&8211; where her mother ends and she begins.

From the Vanity Fair and New York Times contributor comes a “masterful blend of humor, heartache, and unforgettable landscapes” (Adrienne Brodeur, New York Times bestselling author of Wild Game) recounting the solo, cross-country road trip she made along the Ten across the American southwest on a mission to uncover both what harrowing violence may or may not have happened to her late mother, but also, to look within and discover who she herself is&&&8212;where her mother ends and she begins.
Driving her trusty minivan “Minnie,” E.A. Hanks retraces the route of a memorable road trip she once took with her mother, seeking to understand the complex woman who shaped her life. Along the way, as she follows her mother’s diaries and her own recollections of the route, she begins to uncover secrets&&&8212;some unexpectedly wonderful, and others darker and more violent than she ever imagined&&&8212;that bring more questions than answers.
From the quiet expanses of White Sands National Park to the bustling streets of New Orleans, and the Texas-Mexico border to the swamps of the Florida panhandle, she interacts with the amazing breadth and diversity of the people that call these places home. Reckoning with the past, the present, her memories, and herself, Hanks brings us along a poignant journey, revealing how the stories tied to the places we come from shape the narratives of who we are.
“In The 10, every mile is a revelation. E.A. Hanks intertwines geography and memory, drawing readers into her exploration of family secrets and self-discovery. A masterful blend of humor, heartache, and unforgettable landscapes, this memoir reminds us that family, like the open road, is as winding as it is essential. Hanks’s story, at once intimate and universal, is a testament to how the open road can both reveal and heal. A truly moving memoir.” – Adrienne Brodeur, New York Times bestselling author of Wild Game
