That Boy's Facts of Life

Format: Paperback

Condition: Standard Secondhand — £5.68
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.

Seven kinds of love...sexual passion, love of parents, love of children, love of siblings, love of friends, love of country, love of wisdom...Peggy Avakian's older brother discovered the Classical Greek, SEVEN KINDS OF LOVE, in a book from a library on Long Island when he was fifteen. He told her they were the facts of life and Peggy worried they were all out of her reach.As the story begins, Peggy has left her childhood, "lower-middle-class ghetto called home", and wandered away to Boston; but San Francisco, Brooklyn, Oxford and Dublin beckon.The last family connection Peggy has is a rare old Italian drawing her long lost brother found years before. She wants to find out who drew the Old Master drawing and what it's worth. Unfortunately, that seems to mean stalking Eric Matheson, a curator at the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston. He seems to have all seven kinds of love.Eric resents any involvement with Peggy or her drawing. More and more, it's an involvement that breaks his hold on life as her crazy stalking involves his family. Peggy tells her side of the story first and then Eric tells his side.
