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.

A sharp, dark comedy that explores the inescapable difference between feeling 19 and being 19.

Lou is getting on with her life, carefree and without ties. But this abruptly comes to a halt when her 19 year old god-daughter Minnie moves in to take up a place at university. Minnie's arrival shines a harsh light into the corners of Lou's life - revealing it to be not as it seems. Her relationships are complicated, her neighbors are closing in on her, and the clock is ticking. What does it mean to be a grown up?

Godchild premiered at the Hampstead Theatre in October 2013, directed by Michael Attenborough.

Deborah Bruce is a writer and theatre director. As a director, her credits include Scarborough (Royal Court), Helen (Shakespeare's Globe) and Blame (Arcola Theatre). Her play The Distance was nomnated for the 2012 Susan Smith Blackburn Prize.
