The Last Summer of ReasonThis elegant, haunting novel takes us deep into the world of bookstore owner Boualem Yekker. He lives in a country being overtaken by the Vigilant Brothers, a radically conservative party that seeks to control every element of life according to the laws of their stringent moral theology: no work of beauty created by human hands should rival the wonders of their god.

This elegant, haunting novel takes us deep into the world of bookstore owner Boualem Yekker. He lives in a country being overtaken by the Vigilant Brothers, a radically conservative party that seeks to control every element of life according to the laws of their stringent moral theology: no work of beauty created by human hands should rival the wonders of their god. Once-treasured art and literature are now despised. Silently holding his ground, Boualem withstands the new regime, using the shop and his personal history as weapons against puritanical forces. Readers are taken into the lush depths of the bookseller's dreams, the memories of his now-empty family life, his passion for literature, then yanked back into the terror and drudgery of his daily routine by the vandalism, assaults, and death warrants that afflict him. From renowned Algerian author Tahar Djaout we inherit a brutal and startling story that reveals how far an ordinary human being will go to maintain hope.

So So Socks
Size: Regular, Color: Cream
These are very comfortable socks. I machine washed them on a gentle cool water cycle and they ravelled. That is disappointing quality.

Comfortable & Ideal
Color: 2 Pairs: Black
As a hot sleeper, I could never wear regular socks to bed, so I thought I’d try these. They have been comfortable and ideal for my needs. They’re easy to slip on and I take them off before I get out of bed. They’ve been great and my heels look WAY better after just 3 nights. Happy with the purchase!

Great buy for rough heels
Color: Gray
These work great on hubby's feet which are always so dry. Just have to be consistent. They fit great and are comfortable he says.
