Ce livre est incroyablement magnifique !! Et surtout, très intéressant! Ce n’est pas de la fiction à proprement parler mais un rassemblement de textes historiques sur les sorcières. Bonne lecture et très bonne idée cadeau
-
has a large piece of damage on one of the sides as well as in a few other places. was going to be a gift
-
Not really pleased with the condition of this book. The dust jacket and book itself was a little rough looking and had had a remainder mark in the pages. Would not call this a “new” book or even like new. Disappointed and will return.
