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.

Presently at the peak of her career following her towering performance in Kill Bill Vols 1 & 2, Uma Thurman is an intriguing figure: the beautiful muse of Quentin Tarantino whose struggle with body dysmorphia syndrome has often rendered her crippled with insecurity. The daughter of a Buddhist professor and a model, Uma enjoyed a bohemian upbringing. After leaving school at 15 to pursue an acting career, she first gained recognition playing the vulnerable ingenue opposite John Malkovich in 1988's Dangerous Liaisons. But her most memorable role was as a reckless gangster's moll in Quentin Tarantino's Pulp Fiction, one of the most talked-about films of the 1990s. This biography, the first to be published, tells the whole story: the ups and downs of Uma's acting career; her two marriages, to fellow actors Gary Oldman and Ethan Hawke; embracing a new role as devoted mother to daughter Maya and son Roan; and her triumphant return to form as the wronged bride on a rampage of revenge in Kill Bill.
