About this product
Product Information
A new translation of Calvino's influential last work Italo Calvino was due to deliver the Charles Eliot Norton lectures at Harvard in 1985-86, but they were left unfinished at his death. The surviving drafts explore of the concepts of Lightness, Quickness, Multiplicity, Exactitude and Visibility (Constancy was to be the sixth) in serious yet playful essays that reveal Calvino's debt to the comic strip and the folktale. With his customary imagination and grace, he sought to define the virtues of the great literature of the past in order to shape the values of the future. This collection is a brilliant precis of the work of a great writer whose legacy will endure through the millennium he addressed.

Seller sent my book with a completely different cover from the one advertised—which arrived slightly damaged from being sent in a flimsy plastic bag— I had to then explain to them how the picture of the book for sale, should be the book the buyer receives; that is the book they ordered and are expecting. The seller arranged a return, but after receiving the book back, made me wait for a long time, and send them several messages without reply, before eventually refunding me. Poor, unprofessional.

The seller sent a different edition to the one advertised in the photo. The edition they sent is the standard current one which I could’ve easily bought on the high street. The reason I placed the order was because it was an older, possibly out of print edition advertised.
I am extremely unhappy with this, and feel that the seller deliberately deceived buyers with this false representation.

The book itself is in perfect condition, however the image provided is misleading which is disappointing for me. I purposely order from Ebay to get the original cover (as advertised) as it's unavailable on Amazon but I've received the new cover, same one I could have purchased on Amazon for £1.50 cheaper
