Description

Dead End (cul de sac)"With her usual economy and precision, Kim Dallesandro weaves another deceptive magical spell that tells us a lot while telling us apparently little. Behind the facade of a 'comedy of errors', there are layers behind layers of deception, disappointment and earned redemption. In this engaging little fable, we see characters that are both believably real and symbolically true. This is modem America in a petri dish, without recourse to postmodern satire

"With her usual economy and precision, Kim Dallesandro weaves another deceptive magical spell that tells us a lot while telling us apparently little. Behind the facade of a 'comedy of errors', there are layers behind layers of
deception, disappointment and earned redemption. In this engaging little fable, we see characters that are both believably real and symbolically true.
This is modem America in a petri dish, without recourse to postmodern satire or the heavy handed pop psychology so popular of late.
Kim Dallesandro is a very moral writer, who doesn't moralise. Her characters walk a line between idealism and innocence and the cold brutal world of 'Realpolitik'.lt' s one to read more than once, each time realising that this simple little volume is actually slyly complex."
D M Mitchell (author of'Savoy: A Serious Life')

"The reader tries to tie all the parts together but is not quite able to see what is actually happening so the explanation, in the final chapter, is a magical revelation. To be led to the "Ah hah!" moment via a tale full of full-blown, twisted and, yet, sympathetic characters, is quite the treat. About the time you think you have figured out what these crazy-ass characters are doing, there's a twist.
Dead End cul-de-sac is different from previous tales by Kim Dallesadro in that there are more characters, each of whom has an important part in the tangled web, and while the story comes to a satisfying conclusion, the
reader yearns to know what will happen next."
(Charlotte Herzele)

Worth the price
Scent: Face Wash, Size: 5.1 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Although I was hesitant to buy this at first since it’s about twice the price as the facial cleansers I normally use, it’s by far the best face wash I’ve ever used. It exfoliates the skin very well and leaves your face feeling clean after use. Definitely worth the extra few dollars

Greasy, does not blend in well but does not leave white marms
Overall, when researching this product, I saw that it does not leave the white residue on your face like normal sunscreen does, I’m looking for a face moisturizer first with SPF but this one feels more just like an SPF sunscreen. It is pretty greasy shortly and after a few hours of having it on, especially when sweating it makes my face feel really oily, and also it does not blend in very well such as pretty much like I just mentioned you could still feel it on your face a couple hours later but if the no white resident is the most important thing for you, it does not leave that residue. It’s cruelty free and vegan product (no animal products in it or animal testing done) so that’s good but I will most likely not be purchasing this .

So so good!!!
Scent: Face Wash, Size: 5.1 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
This face wash is a game changer! From texture to smell it is perfect. I ordered this for my husband to replace his usual "routine" of washing his face in the shower with bar soap (gasp!). I not-so-sneakily put this in the shower and at his first sample of it he was hooked. It's the only face wash he's tried and actually likes to use on a daily basis. Also, the price point is great! Definitely recommend for anyone seeking an awesome face wash at a perfect price.
