A vivid, affecting portrait of life in the shadow of violence and loss, for readers of both English and Persian The first selection of poems by renowned Iranian poet Garous Abdolmalekian to appear in English, this collection is a mesmerizing, disorienting descent into the trauma of loss and its aftermath. In spare lines, Abdolmalekian conjures surreal, cinematic images that pan wide as deftly as they narrow into intimate focus. Time is a thread come unspooled: pain arrives before the wound, and the dead wait for sunrise. Abdolmalekian resists definitive separations between cause and effect, life and death, or heaven and hell, and challenges our sense of what is fixed and what is unsettled and permeable. Though the speakers in these poems are witnesses to the deforming effects of grief and memory, they remain alive to curiosity, to the pleasure of companionship, and to other ways of being and seeing. Lean Against This Late Hour illuminates the images we conjure in the face of abandonment and ruin, and finds them by turns frightening, bewildering, ethereal, and defiant. "This time," a disembodied voice commands, "send us a prophet who only listens."Binding Type: Paperback

Fabulous product for makeup removal
Size: 4.98 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I love this. I use a good squirt, massage into skin, including onto eyelids and lashes, then wet my hands, and massage into face further, which creates some suds. Then I use a disposable washcloth. I make it wet and wipe it all off. The makeup comes right off my face, including mascara, and my face feels soft and not dry at all afterwards. I’m on my second bottle.

Melts Makeup Off
Size: 4.98 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I love this stuff! It melts my makeup away so gently, even mascara, so I don’t have to scrub as hard as I used to with other cleaners. I follow with my face soap, and my face actually feels like everything has been wiped away now. I feel like my blackheads have even improved and my pores are less clogged.

Nice and work well for sensitive skin
Scent: Unscented, Size: 25 Count (Pack of 2)
Work well and don’t irritate my eyes or skin. Little pricey but I think it’s worth it— compared to Neutragena or others which burn my eyes and face !

Whether it's waterproof mascara, long-lasting lipstick, or heavy foundation, these wipes tackle it all with ease, saving me time and hassle in my skincare routine.
What truly sets these wipes apart, however, is their commitment to skin health. Infused with soothing ingredients like aloe vera and chamomile, they not only cleanse but also calm and nourish my sensitive skin. I've experienced no redness, irritation, or dryness after using these wipes, which is a testament to their gentle yet effective formula.
And let's talk about convenience. The packaging is perfect for on-the-go use. Whether I'm traveling, at the gym, or simply need a quick refresh during the day, these wipes are always within reach. The resealable closure ensures that each wipe stays moist and ready for use, maintaining their efficacy over time.
In conclusion, if you have sensitive skin and are in search of makeup wipes that are both gentle and effective, look no further. These wipes have become a staple in my skincare routine, providing me with a convenient and reliable solution for makeup removal without compromising on skin health.
