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:
This book examines the notion of the pursuit of meaning in Julian Barnes's three consecutive novels: Flaubert's Parrot (1984), Staring at the Sun (1986) and A History of the World in 10 Chapters (1989). The first chapter situates Barnes's novels in the context of the discourses of postmodernism. The focus of Chapter Two is a search for the consolations and reassurances of religion in Staring at the Sun. Chapter Three explores the pursuit of meaning through art as enacted in Flaubert's Parrot and flags the contending approaches to art that are confronted in the text. The last chapter is devoted to "Parenthesis," the half-chapter of A History of the World in 10 Chapters, and considers love's capacity to transcend the entropy and relativity of the disillusioned world of postmodernity.
