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.

Provocativa variación de una historia legendaria, en esta nueva y breve novela de J.M. Coetzee un hombre y una mujer se encuentran. El escenario es la ciudad de Barcelona, lo que los une en un principio es la música de Chopin. Pero ese encuentro no sucede del modo en que ni uno ni el otro lo hubiera deseado, y sin embargo esta historia algo trágica e incompleta recrea una de las más clásicas leyendas de amor de la literatura occidental. Las barreras no son solo del orden de los sentimientos. Witold es polaco y Beatriz es española, y en un principio solo tienen la lengua inglesa para hacerse entender. Más tarde, la forma más esquiva de la traducción será la clave para un último acercamiento entre ambos. Diferencias de gustos, diferencias culturales, diferencias de los sexos: sobre estas tensiones está narrada esta variación moderna e irónica de la historia de Dante y Beatrice. Para lograrlo, J.M. Coetzee hace un cambio rotundo de perspectiva, pues lo feliz y lo fallido de este amor a medias está contado desde la perspectiva precisa, sincera y aguda de su protagonista mujer.
