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.

Rajiv Joseph is one of today's most acclaimed young playwrights. The recipient of numerous accolades, including an NEA award for Best Play and a Whiting Writers' Award, he is an artist to watch. This volume gathers together for the first time his three major works to date. His latest play, Gruesome Playground Injuries, charts the intersection of two lives using scars, wounds, and calamities as the mile markers to explore why people hurt themselves. Animals Out of Paper, a subtle yet bracing examination of the artistic impulse and those in its thrall, follows a world-famous origamist as she becomes the unwitting mentor to a troubled young prodigy. Bengal Tiger at the Baghdad Zoo, a finalist for the Pulitzer Prize for Drama, is a darkly comedic work, a "philosophical and existential investigation into the Iraq War," (Los Angeles Times), lookin on as the lives of two American soldiers, an Iraqi translator, and a tiger intersect on the streets of Baghdad. -- from back cover.
