What do the conditions mean?

Our conditions mean the following:

New - a brand new book
Almost New - appears new but is actually secondhand.
Very Good - only minor imperfections such as minor scuffs to edge or cover or a price written in pencil or shop sticker.
Standard Secondhand - Clearly been read before, but not too bad. We do not recommend these for gifting. Spines usually creased. Could also include creases or folds to cover, some writing such as in the cover or elsewhere, underlining or highlighting, but might not do. Possibly some stains or marks. Similar in general to books in any secondhand shop or charity shop.
Poor Condition - Usually this will have a specific problem such as writing inside, water damage, missing dust jacket, heavy staining, large creases or cuts. These are readable copies but not nice ones. On other websites this condition is called 'Acceptable' or 'Fair' , but we want to be more honest.

Le plus poétique des Livres, ce Livre des rois dont Racine a su si profondément, si lentement restituer la magie, au service de la plus poétique des tragédies chrétiennes ? Retournons chez les demoiselles de Saint-Cyr, protégées de Madame de Maintenon, écoutons, pendant la pause des voix des comédiens, celles des chœurs portées par l'instrumentation de Jean-Baptiste Moreau, dont notre éditeur souligne l'importance et le rôle dans ce spectacle. Le texte est émaillé, presque à chaque vers, de citations bibliques, bien plus nombreuses encore qu'on ne l'avait observé jusqu'ici, comme si, proche de sa fin, le poète entendait revenir aux sources de la foi et de l'inspiration : ne discerne-t-on pas, entre deux feuillets de Bible, la lumière d'Euripide et de la Grèce ? C'est ici la plus longtemps incomprise et aujourd'hui l'une des mieux reconnues d'entre les tragédies de Racine. Ou comment une reine infidèle persécute le jeune Joas, légitime héritier du trône, tapi dans le Temple sous la protection du grand prêtre.
