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.

Pintor, escultor, escritor, cineasta y un auténtico showman, Salvador Dalí (1904-1989) fue uno de los personajes más exhibicionistas y excéntricos del siglo XX. Pionero en introducir en el arte las ideas del psicoanálisis freudiano, es célebre en particular por sus prácticas surrealistas, con ideas tales como los relojes blandos o el teléfono langosta, que se han convertido en iconos del movimiento surrealista y del arte moderno en general. Dalí solía describir sus cuadros como "fotografías de sueños pintadas a mano". La representación precisa de elementos estrambóticos y su disposición incongruente crean una incitante tensión e interés. Él mismo explicó que pintaba con "el afán de la precisión más imperialista", pero solo "para sistematizar la confusión y contribuir al descrédito total del mundo de la realidad". Con su peculiar bigote revolucionó el papel del artista representando a un personaje polémico en la esfera pública y creando obras que, además de contemplarse en las paredes de las galerías, podían consumirse en el ámbito de las artes gráficas, la moda, la publicidad, la escritura y el cine. Este libro descubre las pinturas y la personalidad de Dalí, mostrando no solo su destreza técnica sino también sus composiciones provocadoras y sus temas estimulantes, como la muerte, la decadencia y el erotismo.
