PRAISE AND REVIEWS

The book, published by Spector Books in Leipzig is a thoroughly engaging affair in which Kiwitt examines the role of one commercial store in Prague, Central Europe in which the large department store formerly constructed in communist Czech named Máj (after the month of the proletariat, of course) was eventually taken over by Tesco, the British monolithic giant supermarket and renamed “My”-an adage properly befit the times we live in where any contemporary phrasing of service/business/stuffs must include at its very heart the needs and desires of the individual as espoused in a number of phone and internet services bearing incredulous experiences such “4u” and so on.
