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.

"Maud, vingt et un ans, cache sa beauté et ses idéaux derrière de vilaines lunettes. Elle s'engage dans une ONG et se retrouve au volant d'un quinze tonnes sur les routes de la Bosnie en guerre. Les quatre hommes qui l'accompagnent dans ce convoi sont bien différents de l'image habituelle des volontaires humanitaires. Dans ce quotidien de machisme, Maud réussira malgré tout à se placer au centre du jeu. Un à un, ses compagnons vont lui révéler les blessures secrètes de leur existence. Et la véritable nature de leur chargement. À travers des personnages d'une force exceptionnelle, Jean-Christophe Rufin nous offre un puissant thriller psychologique. Et l'aventure de Maud éclaire un des dilemmes les plus fondamentaux de notre époque. À l'heure où la violence s'invite jusqu'au cœur de l'Europe, y a-t-il encore une place pour la neutralité bienveillante de l'action humanitaire? Face à la souffrance, n'est-il pas temps, désormais, de prendre les armes?"--P. [4] of cover.
