By: John Banville | Series: Vintage InternationalWINNER OF THE LANNAN LITERARY AWARD FOR FICTION • From the Booker Prize-winning author of The Sea comes the fascinating story of a former British spy who's been unmasked as a Russian agent—and "one of spy fiction's greatest characters" (People). • "Contemporary fiction gets no better than this." —The New York Times Book Review
One of the most dazzling and adventurous writers now working in English takes on the enigma of the Cambridge spies in a novel of exquisite menace, biting social comedy, and vertiginous moral complexity. The narrator is the elderly Victor Maskell, formerly of British intelligence, for many years art expert to the Queen. Now he has been unmasked as a Russian agent and subjected to a disgrace that is almost a kind of death. But at whose instigation?
As Maskell retraces his tortuous path from his recruitment at Cambridge to the airless upper regions of the establishment, we discover a figure of manifold doubleness: Irishman and Englishman; husband, father, and lover of men; betrayer and dupe. Beautifully written, filled with convincing fictional portraits of Maskell's co-conspirators, and vibrant with the mysteries of loyalty and identity, The Untouchable places John Banville in the select company of both Conrad and le Carre.
"Victor Maskell is one of the great characters in recent fiction.... The Untouchable is the best work of art in any medium on [its] subject." —Washington Post Book World
"As remarkable a literary voice as any to come out of Ireland; Joyce and Beckett notwithstanding." —San Francisco Chronicle

Satin pillowcases
Size: Standard (20" X 26"), Color: 09 - Ivory, Number of Items: 2, Size: Standard (20" X 26"), Color: 09 - Ivory, Number of Items: 2
These pillowcases are honestly a great purchase. They feel incredibly smooth and soft and I noticed a real difference in both my hair and skin! my hair is less frizzy in the morning, and my skin feels softer.
The quality is excellent for the price, and they’ve held up well after several washes without losing their softness or color. They also feel cool and comfortable throughout the night, which is a nice bonus.
Overall, I’m really happy with this purchase and would definitely recommend them to anyone looking to upgrade their sleep experience!

A must have for sensitive skin
Size: Standard (20" X 26"), Color: 20 - Moss, Number of Items: 2
I am now on my second set of these pillowcases, and I can’t recommend them enough. I have extreme skin sensitivities; anything even slightly rough against my face will give me a rash. These are incredibly smooth and have been a total game-changer for my skin. I love them so much that I actually travel with one to put over hotel pillows whenever I’m away from home.
The best part? I didn’t want to pay a fortune or deal with "hand-wash only" items. I throw these in the washer and they come out perfectly every time. They maintain their color and don’t lose that elegant sheen.

Fantastic satin pillow cases for the price
Size: Queen (20" X 30"), Color: 02 - Pure White, Number of Items: 2
Edit: I already put five stars in the first place, but I was unfair to these pillow cases in my initial review! I thought they were a little warmer than the natural silk, because I was sleeping on them with acrylic pyjamas on. I have come to realise the pillow cases are not warm. They are truly excellent in every way. I just get sweaty every time I wear acrylic pyjamas! I have already ordered two more sets of these (and have switched to micrfibre pyjamas)!
Original review: First off, I want to address a popular misconception. Satin is a weave, not a fibre. So polyester satin is real satin, and it is very common. To all the people saying the makers lied about the fabric, they absolutely did not!
I bought these and I bought some inexpensive silk ones at the same time. I have been loving the silk ones and only started using these lately. I'm happy with all of them. These are not silk, and I can feel the difference, but they are a nice, smooth polyester satin. The white colour is indeed a pure white. I machine washed mine and hung them to dry. They did not wrinkle, pick or pill, and they did not change in colour or size. They look fresh and pristine. I measured my pillows and got the right size. They are pretty and neat, they seem to be well sewn and well finished, with no hanging threads. They are very soft to sleep on and did not make my dry, curly hair frizz up. I slept on them without my protective bonnet, so I got the full experience! Honestly, with the smooth, tight weave of the fabric, they may be superior to the real silk in terms of babying my skin and hair. However, they are a little bit warmer. That is fine for now, since the weather is cool. I might just use these while it is cool out and switch to silk in summer, or I might continue to alternate, we will see. Overall, I am happy with my purchase and would buy them again.

Worth the price
Color: 35 - Lavender, Size: King
The best thing about these king-size sheets is the deep pockets—they stay securely in place and fit the mattress perfectly. They wash beautifully, resist wrinkles, and are incredibly soft and comfortable. A great combination of quality, comfort, and convenience.
