Thomas the ObscureBefore Sartre, before Beckett, before Robbe Grillet, Maurice Blanchot created the new novel, the ultimate post modern fiction. Written between 1932 and 1940, Blanchot's first novel, here brilliantly translated by Robert Lamberton, contains all the remarkable aspects of his famous and perplexing invention, the ontological narrative a tale whose subject is the nature of being itself.

Before Sartre, before Beckett, before Robbe-Grillet, Maurice Blanchot created the new novel, the ultimate post-modern fiction. Written between 1932 and 1940, Blanchot's first novel, here brilliantly translated by Robert Lamberton, contains all the remarkable aspects of his famous and perplexing invention, the ontological narrative--a tale whose subject is the nature of being itself. This paradoxical work discovers being in the absence of being, mystery in the absence of mystery, both to be searched for limitlessly. As Blanchot launches this endless search in his own masterful way, he transforms the possibilities of the novel. First issued in English in 1973 in a limited edition, this re-issue includes an illuminating essay on translation by Lamberton.Binding Type: Paperback

Very good brand
Size: 1.3 Ounce (Pack of 1)
Nice quality, is good for sensitive skin, I use it every night before sleep, the prize is good though is cheaper in my local farmacy, the size is average, the skin absorbs it pretty good, and is very lightweight.

Incredibly hydrating but unbearable scent.
Size: 1.3 Ounce (Pack of 1)
I love all Avène skin barrier creams, recovery lotions and i just purchased this "Hydrance" cream. Texture is nice, it's unbelievably hydrating but the scent is overwhelming. It caused me a headache. So I decided to return it. Then I thought I'll give it another try and Oh my.... For the love of God, remove that awful scent. The reason I love Avène product is because theyre unscented, except this one I guess :/

My favorite bodywash to use right now!
I love Dove products overall but the bodywash is probably my favorite to use from this line! The fragrance is extremely appealing, smells so wonderful and makes me feel extra refreshed after using! It is definitely worth buying for the bottle size because its huge. It leaves a gentle beautiful soothing touch and you smell phenomenal on top of that! If you love the scent Cherry Blossom or any floral scents? Get it! You will love this, trust me :)
