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.
Un uomo di nome Pozdnysev durante un viaggio in treno confessa a uno sconosciuto la propria colpa segreta. Ricorda di aver presentato alla moglie un avventuriero, gran seduttore e abile musicista, dando così inizio a un gioco che si rivelerà tragicamente beffardo. Via via sempre più sospettoso una sera, mentre la coppia esegue in perfetta sintonia la Sonata a Kreutzer di Beethoven, Pozdnysev accantona ogni dubbio. Spinto dalla gelosia uccide la moglie per un tradimento in realtà mai avvenuto e senza rendersi conto del terribile malinteso. Pubblicata nel 1891 dopo numerose revisioni, la "Sonata a Kreutzer" è tra le opere più significative dell'ultimo Tolstoj. Dura requisitoria contro le ipocrisie nascoste della vita coniugale, racconto quasi dostoevskiano per la ricerca delle motivazioni più oscure dei gesti umani, si presenta come la testimonianza spietata di una storia che potrebbe essere vera. "Scritta con cattiveria", come ebbe a dire Sonja Tolstoj, la "Sonata a Kreutzer" rimane un invito spregiudicato a riflettere sulla morale, le grandi passioni e i loro effetti.
