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.

Storia di uno sdoppiamento psichico che conduce il protagonista alla follia, "Il sosia" affronta un tema caratteristico dell'opera di Dostoevskji: la scissione dell'io, lo scontro tra un io goffo, impacciato, tormentato, eternamente perseguitato e un io sfrontato, aggressivo, covo dell'inespressa "bassezza" che si annida nel profondo. Il racconto si svolge in quattro giornate, con un crescendo di angoscia e frenesia che culmina nella centuplicazione dei sosia davanti allo sguardo ottenebrato del protagonista. Dostoevskij non abbandona un solo istante il suo personaggio e sorveglia incessantemente i progressi della sua pazzia, raggiungendo potenti effetti di terrore e di pietà attraverso un'analisi degli stati d'animo e dei pensieri inesorabile e ossessionante.
