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.

You haven&&&8217;t really experienced how weird and beautiful the world is until you see it through Lauren Haldeman&&&8217;s eyes.&&&160;These beautiful diary comics&&&160;by the award-winning poet offer a fresh, humorous, and emotionally resonant perspective on the wonders and weirdness of everyday life.
Following the artist and her family—three humans, three cats, and one dog—through twelve months of morning coffees, late night TV, laundry folding, and walks in the woods, Wild That We&&&39;re Alive invites the reader to marvel at the wonder and weirdness of the ordinary.
Depicting herself as a wolf on the page, Lauren embraces the moniker “Momboy”: part responsible child-rearing adult and part lovable feral kid. In her particularity, she is all of us: grappling with anxieties, awed by the little things, and ready to throw her hands up and laugh or cry in the face of social media, squirrels, politics, and figuring out what to have for dinner. In these pages, Lauren intersperses her diary comics, pithy observations, and philosophical musings with a handful of painterly full-bleed illustrations to show the passing of the seasons.
Like a Midwestern, sweatpants-wearing Roz Chast, Lauren portrays herself and those around her with affectionate self-deprecation—occasionally grumpy, rarely pretty, but always real. For fans of Lucy Knisley’s portrayals of life with both cats and children and Julia Wertz’s explorations of the ways we struggle and succeed in the work of caring for ourselves and others, Wild That We&&&39;re Alive is a debut book from an exciting new voice in comics.
