Format: Paperback
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.

"Depuis la périphérie maritime d'un appartement familial empoisonné par la toute-puissance d'un chef de famille, en compagnie de La Figure, autant guide fictif, acolyte picaresque (« Un jour mon Sancho Panza, un autre ma tempête intérieure ») que double indispensable, le narrateur témoigne du difficile combat d'une émancipation personnelle. Comment il faudra en finir avec l'appétit de vengeance qui sait si bien le tenir droit. Dans la matière de sa mémoire, et ses refuges imaginaires, il installe son chantier de fouille. Le texte, comme un tunnelier piloté par un clown ou un toréro, s'enfonce dans le passé avec obstination, pour ressurgir ici et là. Drôle, tragique, poème de gravas, de haine, de fracas, poème d'amour et de doutes, et surtout, avant tout, chant pour la mère. Bertrand Belin livre un formidable récit pudique et joueur, qui détourne l'aveu autobiographique dans un langage fracassant. Avec cette confidence ultime et poignante : « Mais peut-être que je fanfaronne. De toute évidence, je ne crois pas à la possibilité de mon récurage. »"--Publisher's website.
