PWALooking Aids in the Face
Format: Paperback
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.

Oscar Moore’s PWA (Person With Aids) column in the Guardian gave us moving and informative insights into what it’s like to live with the physical deterioration that Aids inevitably brings. Humane and witty and written with a tough-minded, dry humour, PWA proved to be a comfort to people, whether touched by illness or not. As Moore’s postbag shows . . .
‘You have talked about Aids without self-pity while continually reminding me of the important things in life that also make mine worth living’ V., Bristol
‘Thanks again for the humour you bring into our lives through your own frustrations and fears; maybe you can help us learn to appreciate and enjoy each moment of our lives, without the necessity to experience crisis’ T., Eastbourne
‘I have nothing in common with Oscar Moore. I’m writing to say “Don’t give in”. He won’t, of course. He doesn’t know how to’ E., Milton Keynes
‘Your fears, your vivid writing, your courage have given me great hope in the face of the ghastly, and seemingly unfair, experiences and symptoms we share. I hope that many, like me, have been fortified and humbled by your joie de vivre and courage’ H., Exmouth
