Herman Charles Bosman – Between the lines is a biography of Herman Charles Bosman, who has been widely recognised as one of South Africa’s best short story writers and essayists. He was a man of very special gifts: he was a writer of supreme skill in narration and characterisation, he had an impressive command of language and, above all, his work was illuminated by a play of humour that placed it entirely in a category of its own. In this work on Bosman’s life, Valerie Rosenberg has succeeded admirably in drawing a picture of the man and the writer. He is present in these pages in all his baffling complexity, with all his fears and foibles, his endearing human traits, and with those dark reaches of the soul that at times threatened to topple his life into catastrophe, before which he himself recoiled in horror. *Covered in clear plastic*

How we describe the condition of our books

We are very proud of the condition of the books we sell (please read our testimonials to find out more!)

New: Exactly as it says.

As New: Pretty much new but shows small signs of having been read; inside it will be clean without any inscriptions or stamps; might contain a remainder mark.

Very Good: Might have some creases on the spine; no hard cracks; maybe slight forward lean and short inscription inside; perhaps very minor bumping on the corners of the book; inside clean but the page edges might be slightly yellowed.

Good: A few creases on the spine, perhaps a forward lean, bumping on corners or shelfwear; maybe an inscription inside or some shelfwear or a small tear or two on the dustjacket; inside clean but page edges might be somewhat yellowed.

Fair: In overall good condition, might have a severe forward lean to the spine, an inscription, bumping to corners; one or two folds on the covers and yellowed pages; in exceptional cases these books might contain some library stamps and stickers or have neat sticky tape which was used to fix a short, closed tear.

Poor: We rarely sell poor condition books, unless the books are in demand and difficult to find in a better condition. Poor condition books are still perfect for a good read, all pages will be intact and none threatening to fall out; most probably a reading copy only.
