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.

A viciously funny play about a couple trapped in a destructive cycle of love and lust. Winner of the 2013 Verity Bargate Award.
Harry and Jo are up all night drawing the battle lines of a relationship based on desire, dependency and dirty games. The One premiered at the Soho Theatre, London in February 2014.
"Achingly funny... witty, brave and galling writing... a harshly realistic, intelligent discussion of the complexities of love." - Time Out (London)
"The real thing: sexy, savage and as lively as a cat on a hot tin roof... this is new writing as it should be." - The Stage
"Truly astounding... frank, edgy dialogue and biting wit... hypnotic to watch." - Telegraph
"Incredibly, lawlessly funny... deeply and seriously engaged with femininity and feminism in the contemporary world... in its willingness to say the unsayable it brings theatre one step closer to life.... makes an awful lot of other plays look pallid, mealy-mouthed and, frankly, just a bit boring." - Exeunt Magazine
"A finely wrought study of toxic relationships... spiky and unsettling." - Evening Standard
'Searingly accurate... fierce, funny and well-observed... a short, sharp glimpse into the addictive grip of toxic relationships." - Metro
"Punchy, shocking... it's the bravery in Jones' writing [that] makes this piece so exciting." - Huffington Post
