Outside Looking On

by Chimene Suleyman

Format: Paperback

Condition: Very Good — £9.88
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.

Chimene Suleyman has lived under the watchful eye of Canary Wharf for most of her life. Her debut poetry collection, 'Outside Looking On', explores the positive and negative side of loneliness and boredom, using the Docklands as allegory and symbol. The tall, glass monoliths are as lonely as the characters who exist around them. But they offer constant support; a navigation tool, stars in the sky, always there, lights on. A constant presence and reassurance. Is it possible to claim for yourself a building that doesn't know you exist? 'Outside Looking On' is another powerful, daring work of site-specific literature from Influx Press.
