“A page turner . . . An absorbing and emotionally riveting story about what it’s like to live during times of crisis.” —The New York Times Book Review

A dazzling novel of friendship and redemption in the face of tragedy and loss set in 1980s Chicago and contemporary Paris


In 1985, Yale Tishman, the development director for an art gallery in Chicago, is about to pull off an amazing coup, bringing in an extraordinary collection of 1920s paintings as a gift to the gallery. Yet as his career begins to flourish, the carnage of the AIDS epidemic grows around him. One by one, his friends are dying and after his friend Nico’s funeral, the virus circles closer and closer to Yale himself. Soon the only person he has left is Fiona, Nico’s little sister.

Thirty years later, Fiona is in Paris tracking down her estranged daughter who disappeared into a cult. While staying with an old friend, a famous photographer who documented the Chicago crisis, she finds herself finally grappling with the devastating ways AIDS affected her life and her relationship with her daughter. The two intertwining stories take us through the heartbreak of the eighties and the chaos of the modern world, as both Yale and Fiona struggle to find goodness in the midst of disaster.

Deceptive Listing but Good Product
Size: 8.4 Ounce (Pack of 1)
This is not the German version as it have Petrolatum. Based on ingredients it is the Mexican/American version. That being said, it's great and I enjoy how moisturizing it is as a body cream (though it causes acne if I use it on my face) and will purchase again (though not from this listing as it is more expensive than the regular listings for the same item).

Nivea
Size: 8.4 Ounce (Pack of 1)
NIVEA is a classic for a reason! This cream is super moisturizing and perfect for dry or rough skin. It feels rich and nourishing without irritating my skin. I love using it at night, and I wake up with my skin feeling soft and smooth. It’s affordable, effective, and a must-have in my skincare routine. I highly recommend it!

Tretinoin Users- THIS is for YOU!
Size: 8.4 Ounce (Pack of 1)
I used this when I was younger on very chapped hands. I'm happy to have rediscovered this product for my face as an adult! For anyone using tretinoin, this is THE moisturizer for YOU!!!!! Not too much of a scent, thick product that absorbs well, and it's the best for the bathroom counter.
