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.

C'est en faisant des recherches en Gironde pour La Bicyclette bleue que j'ai rencontré Marie Salat.
Ayant acheté, chez un libraire brocanteur d'un hameau perdu, trois cartes postales anciennes pour la joliesse de l'image, je les ai lues dès mon retour à Malagar. A mesure de ma lecture, une émotion et une gène profondes m'envahissaient; je surprenais des lettres d'amour d'une femme à une autre femme, et quel amour !
Le lendemain, je me suis précipitée chez le brocanteur. Dans le fouillis de ses boîtes, j'ai retrouvé quatre autres cartes, aussi belles, aussi émouvantes. « Cela ferait une belle histoire », me suis-je dit. Pendant trois ans, cette histoire a mûri dans ma tète, et puis le temps est venu pour moi de la raconter. J'ai choisi de prolonger la correspondance de Marguerite et d'imaginer les réponses de Marie.
Ces cartes ont été échangées en 1903 et 1904 entre deux jeunes femmes mariées habitant un petit village de trois cents habitants: l'une était couturière, l'autre ouvrière. Bien entendu, les noms propres et les lieux sont imaginaires.
