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.

À la fin du XIXe siècle, dans la Russie tsariste, un jeune fonctionnaire qui se rêve écrivain part en mission pour quelques mois dans une région reculée, aux confins de l’Ukraine.

Ses rapports avec les paysans et petits fonctionnaires du cru sont difficiles, et les semaines passent dans un ennui pesant. S’égarant en forêt au cours d’une chasse, il fait par hasard la rencontre d’une énigmatique jeune femme, qui vit avec sa mère dans une maison isolée ; elles y ont été reléguées après que les villageois s’en sont violemment pris à elles, les accusant de sorcellerie...

Récit à consonance autobiographique, La Sorcière Olessia parut en 1898; c’est une des nouvelles les plus célèbres d’Alexandre Kouprine (1870-1938), alors jeune écrivain dont Tchékhov avait fait l’un de ses plus proches amis.
