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.

Une île au large de la Bretagne. Des étés charmeurs qui s'éternisent devant la vaste étendue bleue saupoudrée de rochers roses. Et puis un jour, dans ce paradis, l'arrivée d'un jeune homme, Gilles, qui a accepté une mission impossible : traduire en français Ada ou l'Ardeur, le chef-d'œuvre intraduisible de Vladimir Nabokov. Impatience de l'éditeur, pressions d'un écrivain génial et insupportable... Ce sont finalement les voisins, les amis de passage, qui, sous l'impulsion d'une dame attendrie, vont entreprendre de venir en aide au malheureux traducteur. S'ensuivront deux étés d'aventure au coeur des mots. Deux étés où la musique d'un texte va naître de la douceur de vivre, de l'harmonie environnante. De cet épisode étonnant et réel, Erik Orsenna, vingt et quelques années plus tard, a tiré un récit tout de poésie et d'humour, un apprentissage de l'enchantement.
