Paperback. Condition: Used. This Time Next Week (1964) by Leslie Thomas is one of those paperbacks that has truly lived ? and has the slightly unhinged binding to prove it. Published by Pan Books in the golden era before ISBNs and book data fetishism, this stubborn little volume proudly lists its ISBN as: none . That?s not an error; that?s a lifestyle choice. This is an analogue book from an analogue world, now turning up in your life via the gloriously honest emporium known as Crappy Old Books . Condition: Used (with exciting structural drama) Let?s get right to the important bit: The entire cover ? front, back and spine ? has come away from the main text block . Yes, the book is now in two intimate but separate parts: The cover The pages They are, however, still on speaking terms, and can very easily be glued back together by your friendly neighbourhood book repair shop (or that one crafty friend who owns PVA glue and a sense of mission). Think of it as: A small restoration project A bonding exercise (literally) ?Flat-pack literature: some assembly required.? Once reunited, it?ll look like the sort of battered-but-brave paperback that has earned the right to sit on any shelf with a faint air of experience and questionable decisions. What you?re actually getting Title: This Time Next Week Author: Leslie Thomas Publisher: Pan Books Year: 1964 ISBN: None (because 1964 did not care about your database) Condition: Used, detached cover, totally repairable, emotionally resilient Inside, you still get Thomas doing what he does best: gently skewering the ordinary, the shabby, the hopeful, and the hopeless. It?s everyday life with its shirt untucked and its hair slightly wrong, convinced that things will almost certainly be better? well? this time next week. Who is this book for? People who think ?ISBN: none? is not a red flag but a green light. Readers who don?t panic when a book needs a dab of glue and a bit of sympathy. Anyone who believes a paperback with scars has far more interesting stories than a pristine hardback that?s never left a coffee table. Those who enjoy the idea that their book purchase comes with a tiny side quest. Expect from the physical object: A gloriously detached cover (front, back and spine) waiting to be heroically reattached. Tanned pages with that warm ?I survived several decades in various houses? tone. Creases, scuffs and mild indignities that we categorise under the generous heading of ?character? A format that slips easily into bag, pocket, or waiting room, once you?ve introduced it to glue. From Crappy Old Books, with honesty At Crappy Old Books , we don?t pretend this is ?mint?, ?collector-grade? or ?as new? It?s none of those things. It is: Old Slightly broken Completely readable And oddly charming It?s the paperback equivalent of a 1960s bedsit: a bit worn, a bit wobbly, but still full of stories. In short, This Time Next Week (1964) is a cheerfully battered Leslie Thomas Pan paperback, sold without an ISBN and without an attached cover , but with all its pages and all its personality intact. Add a squirt of glue, a steady hand, and a tolerant book repair person, and by this time next week you could have it back in one piece, looking disreputable and magnificent on your shelf. Buy it for the story; stay for the restoration project. Seller Inventory # 956

Paperback. Condition: Used. This Time Next Week (1964) by Leslie Thomas is the sort of paperback that looks like it?s seen things? and would absolutely tell you about them over a lukewarm cup of instant coffee. Published by Pan Books in that glorious era before everyone got obsessed with ISBNs, this copy bravely goes without one ? a true free spirit of the pre-barcode age. Our edition, offered by Crappy Old Books , is proudly Used ? not ?pre-loved?, not ?vintage?, just honestly, unapologetically used . The cover may be a little scuffed, the pages may have gone the shade of a chain-smoker?s dreams, and the spine might creak like a bedsit floorboard at 2am, but that?s all part of the charm. If you wanted perfection, you?d be in a different shop. Inside, you?ll find Leslie Thomas doing what he does best: poking at the small dramas, private disasters and quiet absurdities of ordinary lives, all with a raised eyebrow and a grin that suggests he knows a lot more than he?s saying. It?s the 1960s in paperback form: slightly scruffy, a bit cheeky, and convinced that life will definitely be better? well? this time next week . This is a book for you if: You think ?ISBN: none? is less a problem and more a personality trait. You like your paperbacks with a faint smell of nostalgia and a hint of ?who owned this before me and what were they avoiding doing when they read it?? You believe stories about everyday people being quietly ridiculous are far more interesting than yet another billionaire saving the world with an app. You want something small enough to fit in a coat pocket and just disreputable enough to look interesting on a train. Expect: A cover design from that bold era when fonts shouted, colours clashed, and nobody worried about ?brand guidelines? Pages that turn easily, because they?ve been turned before ? possibly by someone in a bedsit with an electric fire and a questionable sandwich. The comforting sense that you?re holding a little slice of mid-20th-century paperback history, surviving purely on charm, paper, and the refusal to die. Condition: Used means this book has done its time on nightstands, bus seats, and probably the top of a loo cistern. It may feature: Light creasing to the spine (proof it?s been read, not just displayed). Tanning to pages (the dignified ageing of a proper paperback, not a defect). Minor scuffs, dings, or mysterious tiny marks that we politely refer to as ?character? ISBN: None. This book predates spreadsheets, metadata obsession, and people asking ?Can you just scan the barcode?? If that bothers you, this is probably not your moment. If it delights you, welcome home. In short: This Time Next Week is not just a Leslie Thomas novel; it?s a small, portable time machine to 1964, wrapped in aging Pan paper and sold to you by a shop brazen enough to call itself Crappy Old Books . It?s imperfect, slightly battered, quietly brilliant company. Buy it now, and by this time next week you might even have finished it. Or at least started it. Or at the very least, put it somewhere that makes you look interesting. Seller Inventory # 1009
