Ninth of November
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.

"The Ninth of November is the story of the happy childhood of a small girl and her sister growing up in the Germany of the 1930s in a liberal Jewish family that had for generations been integrated into German provincial life. Hannele Zürndorfer recalls a time when it was still possible, for a child, to be ignorant of the coming dangers of National Socialism. The 9 November 1938 brought home the realization and proof of these very dangers. Kristallnacht, the night of broken glass, shattered her childhood and the lives of Jews all over Germany, for ever. Hannele Zürndorfer's lyrical memory and elegant prose present a filigree history of her life before this darkly significant date, tracing her gradual awareness of tension and menace, to her assimilation in England. This book provides a vivid documentary account of the situation of the time; a gallery of memories, poignantly and sympathetically evoked." -- back cover
