hardcover. Condition: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that… encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.

Paperback. Condition: Good. In the hallowed halls of literary elegance, where the dust motes dance like wayward thoughts and forgotten epiphanies, Eleanor Bron?s Desdemona - If You Had Only Spoken stands as a curious relic from 1992. Published by Virago, an imprint renowned for its commitment to illuminating the complex inner li…ves of women, this novel seems to whisper sweet nothings at the intersection of Shakespearean drama and the bittersweet realities of modern existence. One might even argue that it?s the kind of book that could fuel hours of pretentious debate over lukewarm cups of fair-trade coffee in a dimly lit café, with the kind of people who wear berets and insist they ?understand? Proust. Imagine, if you will, a Desdemona who hasn?t simply succumbed to the tragic fate laid out by her more famous counterpart. Here, Bron offers a tantalising glimpse into the psyche of a woman who might have clutched her pearls a little tighter, perhaps even wielded a quill of her own. With wit sharper than the edge of a well-used paper cutter, the narrative grapples with themes of voice, agency, and the maddening intricacies of relationships, all while navigating a world that often seems intent on reducing women to mere footnotes in the grand narrative of life. Who knew that a character from a tragic play could inspire so much lively chatter in the quiet corners of our literary imaginations? Bron is known for her ability to blend the profound with the pedestrian, creating a melange of introspection and just the right amount of irony. This book is no exception; it?s as if she?s taken a Shakespearean sonnet, tossed it in a blender with a contemporary self-help manual, and poured the result into a vintage teacup?both charmingly anachronistic and decidedly unromantic. Readers will find themselves pondering not only Desdemona?s fate but also their own, as they ruminate on the missed opportunities and unspoken words that pepper their own lives. But wait?there?s more! For those of you who enjoy a good list, and let?s face it, who doesn?t? Here are a few gems you might glean from Desdemona - If You Had Only Spoken : How to wield a quill like a sword in a world of intrigue. The art of sarcasm as self-preservation in the face of existential dread. Tips for navigating friendships that are as tangled as a 1990s mobile phone charger. Alternative endings that might have saved Desdemona a lot of heartache (and probably a whole lot of eyeliner). How to turn the tables on tragic narratives?sometimes, the heroine gets to speak! As we delve deeper into the text, one can?t help but feel that the book is almost a cheeky nod to those of us who have ever wanted to rewrite our own narratives. Perhaps Bron is gently nudging us to reconsider the roles we play in our own lives, imploring us to speak when silence feels like the easier option. It?s a delightful paradox?an invitation to liberation tightly wound in the cloth of tragedy. Condition: Good, which is a subjective term in the world of second-hand literature. Expect the charming scent of aged pages and perhaps the occasional ink smudge, as if the book has had a life of its own, engaging in clandestine literary affairs. There may even be some marginalia that adds a layer of delightful intrigue, though we can?t guarantee it?s particularly profound?more likely the musings of a confused teenager or an over-caffeinated book club member. In closing, if you?ve ever found yourself at a crossroads of literary curiosity and historical inquiry, let Desdemona - If You Had Only Spoken be your guide. With its rich tapestry of irony and introspection, this book is a treasure trove for anyone keen to explore the uncharted territories of female agency and the unspoken truths of the human condition. So why not take a chance on this quirky find, available at Crappy Old Books, where the charm of yesteryears meets the authenticity of today?s literary adventures? THIS BOOK BEARS THE CRAPPY OLD BOOKS STAMP. IF THAT IS UNDESIRABLE PLEASE DO NOT BUY THIS. THE STAMP MARKS WHICH IS USUALLY TO THE FRONT AND BACK INNER PAGES SAYS SOLD BY CRAPPY OLD BOOKS WITH WEB SITE URL. IT IN NO WAY DEMINISHED FROM THE READING. IF YOU WANT A PRISTINE BOOK, PLEASE FIND ANOTHER BOOK IN BETTER CONDITION SOMEWHERE ELSE.

Paperback. Condition: Good. There are travel books in which a writer sets off across Europe in search of landscape, culture, revelation and possibly a tax-deductible lunch. Then there is Eleanor Bron, who appears to have looked at France and Holland and thought: yes, but what if one encountered them by bicycle, thereby adding we…ather, discomfort, mechanical betrayal and the possibility of falling over into the intellectual experience? Life and Other Punctures is Bron?s wonderfully sideways account of a cycling journey, but naturally it is not only about cycling. Cycling is merely the excuse. The true subject is the human condition as experienced through saddles, roads, hotels, fellow travellers, aching limbs, punctures literal and social, and the strange comedy of trying to move purposefully through a world that keeps presenting small humiliations as if they were part of the itinerary. It is a travel book, a comic memoir, a sequence of observations, and possibly a warning that bicycles, like people, are elegant in theory and awkward in use. Eleanor Bron brings to the whole thing the dry, intelligent mischief one would expect from someone who has spent years making performance look effortless while presumably knowing exactly how much effort was being concealed. She has that very English gift for sounding composed while everything around her is becoming slightly ridiculous. A road is never just a road. A hotel is never merely a hotel. A conversation with a stranger may become a miniature opera of misunderstanding. A mechanical problem may begin as an inconvenience and end as a philosophical note on mortality, rubber, and the limits of optimism. The title is doing good work. Life does indeed puncture. Tyres puncture, plans puncture, dignity punctures, assumptions puncture, and occasionally one?s patience goes off with a hiss. The sensible response is probably to repair the damage and carry on, but the literary response is to notice the absurdity of having expected smooth progress in the first place. Bron?s book sits in that pleasing tradition of comic travel writing where the destination is less important than the mind being dragged towards it at uncertain speed. There is something especially satisfying about a late-1970s paperback travel narrative: small enough to fit in a bag, old enough to have escaped the age of ?content,? and written before every journey had to be turned into ten tips, six sponsored recommendations and a tragic little photograph of coffee. Here, travel still has room to be odd. You can get lost without an app correcting you. You can be annoyed in private. You can discover things without immediately rating them out of five. This Magnum paperback is in Good condition, which seems entirely proper for a book about bicycles and punctures. A pristine copy would feel suspicious, as though it had never been rained on by implication. This one has survived, remained readable, and not collapsed into the roadside hedge of history. Crappy Old Books offers it for anyone who likes clever comic memoirs, cycling done with more wit than Lycra, and journeys where the punctures are probably the point.
