La consolante(Litterature Generale)

Format: Paperback

Condition: Standard Secondhand — £1.00
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.

Charles Balanda, 47 ans, architecte à Paris, apprend incidemment la mort d'une femme qu'il a connue quand il était enfant, et adolescent. Il déchire la lettre et la jette dans la poubelle de la cuisine. Quand il relève son pied de la pédale et que le couvercle retombe, clac, il a l'impression d'avoir refermé, à temps, une espèce de boîte de Pandore, et, puisqu'il est devant l'évier, s'asperge le visage en gémissant. Retourne ensuite vers les autres. Vers la vie. Se sent mieux déjà. Allez ... c'est fini. C'est fini, tu comprends? Le problème, c'est que non, il ne comprend pas. Et il n'y retourne pas, vers la vie. Il perd l'appétit, le sommeil, abandonne plans et projets et va essayer de comprendre pourquoi tour se fissure en lui; et autour de lui. Commence alors un long travail de deuil au bout duquel il est obligé de se rendre à l'évidence : l'échelle de cette vie-ci est illisible et il faut tout rebâtir.
