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.

El «cuarto propio» de Elena Ferrante: las lecciones de literatura de la autora que más intriga al mundo, con más de veinte millones de lectores
«La voz de Elena Ferrante, junto a la de sus personajes —no solo Lila y Lenù, sino todas las mujeres que hablaron en sus novelas—, nos dicen en este libro: aquí estoy yo». —Annalena Benini, Il Foglio
«Una escritora clásica en el sentido maravilloso de la palabra». —Milena Busquets
La maravilla de descubrir la lectura y la escritura desde la infancia, los recuerdos de las primeras páginas escritas, sus olores y lugares, y luego los grandes hallazgos, desde los nombres canónicos de la literatura universal hasta las autoras que la han iluminado, impregnan estas lecciones magistrales que ha impartido Elena Ferrante invitada por la Cátedra Umberto Eco de la Universidad de Bolonia.
En este recorrido histórico y personal por la inspiración y su vocación de escritora, la autora más enigmática de la actualidad desvela también sus consejos sobre la creación de personajes y la trama. Desde Shakespeare hasta Gertrude Stein, pasando por las obras de Diderot, Jane Austen o Virginia Woolf, y culminando con Dante y su Beatrice, Ferrante entrelaza lecturas y reflexiones con su propia obra y su vida, sobre las que por primera vez se confiesa en una nueva intimidad con sus lectores.
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
A MOST ANTICIPATED BOOK OF 2022 Oprah Daily, TIME Magazine, Bustle, The Guardian, Financial Times, A.V. Club, Cosmopolitan, Marie Claire, Fortune
Four new and revelatory essays by the author of My Brilliant Friend and The Lost Daughter.
In 2020, Claire Luchette in O, The Oprah Magazine described the beloved Italian novelist Elena Ferrante as “an oracle among authors.” Here, in these four crisp essays, Ferrante offers a rare look at the origins of her literary powers. She writes about her influences, her struggles, and her formation as both a reader and a writer; she describes the perils of “bad language” and suggests ways in which it has long excluded women’s truth; she proposes a choral fusion of feminine talent as she brilliantly discourses on the work of Emily Dickinson, Gertrude Stein, Ingeborg Bachmann, and many others.
Here is a subtle yet candid book by “one of the great novelists of our time” about adventures in literature, both in and out of the margins.
“Everyone should read everything with Elena Ferrante’s name on it.” —The Boston Globe
