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.

When Mirka gets a job in a country house in rural England, she has no idea of the struggle she faces to make sense of a very English couple. Richard and Sophie are chaotic, drunken, frequently outrageous but also warm, generous and kind to Mirka.
Swiftly commandeered by Richard for his latest money-making enterprise, taxidermy, Mirka soon surpasses him in skill. After a traumatic break two years ago with her family in Slovakia, she finds to her surprise that she is happy at Fairmont Hall. But when she feels herself falling for Sophie, everything she values is put in danger and she must learn the hard way what she really believes in.

'An important novel in an uncertain time' Sara Novic
'[A] wry and knowing debut' Stylist
