Description

Providing fresh and unnerving perspectives on life, this collection of seductive and provocative stories explores the games people play and the tales that they tell. These eclectic narratives feature an old lady who dangles desperate messages from her window, the secret to writing a worldwide bestseller, and the wondering if such events as a day at the beach in Paekakariki, Wellington harbor at dusk, or a new pair of shoes from Dunedin can permanently change one's outlook. With quirky humor and extraordinary insights, this compelling collection of tales emphasizes themes of universal human frailty.

The shipping was just superior

The shipping was just superior; not even one of the books was in contact with the shipping box -anywhere-, not even a corner or the bottom, so all the books arrived in perfect condition. The international shipping took around 2 weeks, so pretty great too.

Found a hard to get book…

Finding a hard to get book on Booksplease and with it not being an over inflated price was great. Ordering was really easy with updates on despatch. The book was packaged well and in great condition. I will certainly use them again.
