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.

«I miei genitori sono gente aperta. Non resteranno annientati dalla notizia» pensa Philip Benjamin, il protagonista di questo romanzo nel momento in cui, a venticinque anni, si appresta a rivelare alla famiglia la propria omosessualità. Eppure per Rose e Owen, piccoli intellettuali nella sfavillante New York degli anni ottanta, la scoperta delle inclinazioni amorose del figlio apre una crepa dapprima sottile, poi sempre più profonda e insanabile, nel delicato equilibrio affettivo familiare, costringendoli a fare i conti con la propria più intima natura, le proprie scelte, le proprie responsabilità. Ma in questo paesaggio familiare desolato, in questo sfacelo di relazioni personali, Philip, e non solo lui, saprà individuare la strada per la costruzione di una vita sentimentale flessibile, realistica, libera, ma saldamente ancorata all'autenticità e alla sincerità. Postfazione di Fernanda Pivano.
