Sous la montagne

Format: Paperback

Condition: Standard Secondhand — £7.15
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 un drôle d'endroit, un concentré de chaleur sous la montagne de ce pays rude et froid : l'épicerie bazar, ses étagères de guingois, ses bocaux, son chat pensif et son échelle rouge. Depuis toujours, il y a ici de la magie dans l'air. Mais c'est au cœur de l'hiver, lorsque la disette menace, qu'elle se déploie pour de bon. Car ce jour-là, lorsque Madame l'épicière gravit l'échelle pour s'en aller pêcher les dernières réserves tout là-haut, sur l'étagère des confins, les bocaux dans ses bras deviennent plus imposants à mesure qu'elle en redescend les degrés. Et ainsi, de ce jour glacial, se répand la légende de l'escabelle qui sait rendre grand ce qui était petit. C'était oublier, peut-être, que le chat l'avait bien dit : Si la miette monte l'échelle, Le pain descendra l'escabelle. Jouant de nos perceptions avec humour et poésie, Anne Herbauts fait danser les images et les mots en virtuose, pour une fois encore faire naître l'enchantement. (www.casterman.com).
