Brilliant and original, A Thousand Years of Good Prayers introduces a remarkable new writer whose breathtaking stories are set in China and among Chinese Americans in the United States. In this rich, astonishing collection, Yiyun Li illuminates how mythology, politics, history, and culture intersect with personality to create fate. From the bustling heart of Beijing, to a fast-food restaurant in Chicago, to the barren expanse of Inner Mongolia, A Thousand Years of Good Prayers reveals worlds both foreign and familiar, with heartbreaking honesty and in beautiful prose. "Immortality," winner of The Paris Review's Plimpton Prize for new writers, tells the story of a young man who bears a striking resemblance to a dictator and so finds a calling to immortality. In "The Princess of Nebraska," a man and a woman who were both in love with a young actor in China meet again in America and try to reconcile the lost love with their new lives. "After a Life" illuminates the vagaries of marriage, parenthood, and gender, unfolding the story of a couple who keep a daughter hidden from the world. And in "A Thousand Years of Good Prayers," in which a man visits America for the first time to see his recently divorced daughter, only to discover that all is not as it seems, Li boldly explores the effects of communism on language, faith, and an entire people, underlining transformation in its many meanings and incarnations. These and other daring stories form a mesmerizing tapestry of revelatory fiction by an unforgettable writer.Binding Type: Paperback

Tough and Long-Lasting Toy for Heavy Chewers
Size: Large, Product Packaging: Standard Packaging
The KONG Extreme Tires are built for dogs who chew through just about everything else. Made from KONG’s most durable rubber, the toy is designed to stand up to strong jaws while also offering a fun shape that dogs enjoy rolling, chasing, and chewing. The tire design has grooves that can be stuffed with treats or peanut butter, which helps keep dogs engaged for longer play sessions.
This toy is especially useful for large breeds or heavy chewers who usually destroy softer toys in minutes. While no toy is completely indestructible, the Extreme Tires hold up far better than most and provide both chewing satisfaction and mental stimulation. The size is hefty and best suited for medium to large dogs, and smaller breeds may find it too heavy.
Pros: The rubber is extra durable, the tire shape adds variety and fun, and the grooves can be filled with treats for extra engagement.
Cons: It may be too heavy for smaller dogs, strong chewers can still wear it down over time, and it isn’t designed to bounce or fly like other KONG toys.
A rugged and reliable toy made for power chewers. The Extreme Tires provide long-lasting fun and double as a great option for treat-stuffing, making it one of KONG’s toughest and most useful toys.

To small for 2 month German Shepherd. It was my bad for ordering a small. But I never saw product specs saying the actual size. Remember never buy a to small of toy for your puppy as it’s a choking hazard.

Totally indestructible
Size: Large, Product Packaging: Standard Packaging
My daughter's lab kills any toy he gets. This was perfect! We accidentally left it in his kennel while out one day and it was still in perfect condition. Totally worth the money if you dog is a tyrant with toys!!
