Glansholms Antikvariat har många tusentals böcker på lager - och över 10 miljoner böcker hos våra underleverantörer. Vi har en unik service till dig - efterlys boken och våra experter eftersöker den åt dig och återkommer inom några dagar.
Vad kommer boken att kosta? Normalpriserna för efterlysta böcker ligger mellan 120 kr och 380 kr beroende på utgåva, skick, tillgång, etc. Vi kan inte lämna ett pris förrän vi bedömt det enskilda exet. Har vi boken inne kan det ibland bli billigare och rariteter har ofta ett högre värde, att en bok är kostsam hindrar oss inte från att eftersöka och reservera den för våra kunder.
Är en efterlysning bindande? Nej, naturligtvis får du se bild, pris och skickbedömning innan du bestämmer dig. Men en efterlysning innebär ofta att vi låter ta in boken på lager och vi är därför naturligtvis tacksamma om du är seriöst intresserad och återkommer när vi kontaktar dig via epost.
Vänligen gör en efterlysning per bok! Varje bok behöver ett eget referensnummer för att vi ska kunna hantera efterlysningen.
Vi behandlar inte efterlysningar av ordinarie kurslitteratur.

Thomas Nesbitt is a divorced American writer in the midst of a rueful middle age. Living a very private life in Maine - in touch only with his daughter and still trying to reconcile himself to the end of a long marriage that he knew was flawed from the outset - he finds his solitude disrupted by the arrival, one wintry morning, of a box postmarked Berlin. The return address on the box - Dussmann - unsettles him completely. For it is the name of the woman with whom he had an intense love affair twenty-six years ago in Berlin - at a time when the city was cleaved in two, and personal and political allegiances were haunted by the deep shadows of the Cold War. Refusing initially to confront what he might find in that box, Thomas nevertheless finds himself forced to grapple with a past he has never discussed with any living person - and in the process relive those months in Berlin, when he discovered, for the first and only time in his life, the full, extraordinary force of true love. But Petra Dussmann - the woman to whom he lost his heart - was not just a refugee from a police state, but also someone who lived with an ongoing sorrow beyond dreams...and one which gradually rewrote both their destinies. In this, his tenth novel, Douglas Kennedy has written that rare thing: a love story as morally complex as it is tragic and deeply reflective. Brilliantly gripping, it is an atmospherically dense, ethically tangled tale of romantic certainty and conflicting loyalties, all set amidst a stunningly rendered portrait of Berlin in the final dark years before "The Wall" came down. Like all of Kennedy's previous, critically acclaimed bestselling novels, "The Moment" is both unputdownable and profound. Posing so many searching questions about why and how we fall in love - and the tangled way we project on to others that which our hearts seek - it is a love story of great epic sweep and immense emotional power.
