«En el momento de la siesta de Dios, las putas somos la luz de la vela.» Con el nombre de Leonardo a cuestas y una estética andrógina, la protagonista llega a Tijuana, estafada por un grupo de tratantes. Bautizada como Mónica y cobijada por Rosy, una especie de madre adoptiva, se siente plena y aprende los trucos del que será su mundo: un lugar lleno de traiciones, felicidad, euforia y adicciones. Un par de años después, Mónica pasará de la seguridad de los hoteles y posadas a la hostilidad de la calle y de la Jungla, el lugar más sórdido y desconocido de Tijuana. Con la cuerpa reseca y la voz de su madre en mente, consigue lamerse las heridas y volver a casa. El regreso será un viacrucis y la llegada una bendición. También, será el verdadero inicio. Esta cuerpa mía es una novela honesta y desparpajada, llena de humor y de música, de amor y sororidad, pero con espacio para el dolor y el odio. Está llena de drogas, peligro e hipocresías; de inyecciones de aceite, lentejuelas y tacones altos; de sexo en las esquinas, hoteles y espacios virtuales. Uri Bleier escribe una novela que huele a calle, sabe a playa y suena a cumbia; una historia que su personaje monta a galope con toda su fiereza y ternura. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION "When God naps, we whores are the candlelight."Ditching their birth name of Leonardo and sporting an androgynous look, the protagonist of This Body of Mine is stuck in Tijuana after being conned by their border smugglers. Calling themselves Mónica and informally adopted by woman named Rosy, they soon master the tricks of this new world, a place of betrayals, euphoria and addiction. A few years pass and Mónica transitions from the relative safety of the city's motels to the dangers of the streets and the Jungle, the most sordid and notorious corner of Tijuana. Exhausted and drained, and with their mother's voice in their head, they decide to cut their losses and head home. The journey is hellish, but the homecoming is a blessing and a chance at a new beginning. This Body of Mine is a daring and honest novel full of humor and music, love and sisterhood, but also hatred and pain. It describes a world of drugs, danger and hypocrisy; silicone, sequins and stilettos; sex in alleyways, hotels and cyberspace. Through his headstrong but tender protagonist, Uri Bleier will make you smell the street, taste the seaside breeze, and tap your toes to a cumbia beat.

My Niece dog loves it!
Size: 18in, Style: Sport
This ball launcher takes a bit of getting. used to, but it is really helpful for those of us who are not MLB pitchers! The launcher itself is a sturdy plastic that is not brittle yet not soft; when the ball is launched there is no destructive bending in the shaft. The handle is padded and ergonomically sound while the cup end cradles the ball but has cut-outs on each side for easy loading and unloading of the ball. It did take a bit of practice for me to get the hang of it, but for my husband and son it was much easier. The launcher works well to help us older, non-gifted athletes launch the ball farther and faster while saving the shoulder, elbow, and wrist (important if there is any arthritis). The ball fits nicely into the cup and releases easily.
The 2.5 size was too small for my Doberman, so we opted for the 3.5 in launcher. This smaller launcher and ball are now in the employ of my sister and her husband for their retriever-border collie mix, an 18 month old little fireball!. This is just the right size for her. My sister's husband has difficulty with arthritis and is neither quick on his feet nor able to stand very long. So the launcher comes in very handy. He can actually sit in a lawn chair and throw the ball repeatedly when their dog retrieves and returns it to him. That is a win- win!
Top 3 Likes:
-Easy to use
-Helps older pet owner
-Drives the ball farther and faster
Top 3 Dislikes:
-With repeated uses the edges of the launcher appear to get scuffed and scratched
-Some ingrained staining on the edges persists requiring scrubbing to remove
-There is a mild worry that with time the launcher may snap

My dog loves it
Size: 25in, Style: Sport
I am amazed at how far I can throw a tennis ball. My dog and I absolutely love this. What happens to work well with the squeaky balls?I get on amazon as well. I have one of these at home, And I keep another one in the truck.
Very durable, The balls have good bounce, My dog and I have a lot of fun with it. My dog doesn't chew much on balls, But this one seems like it's going to stand out, I love the versatility, Hey can handle almost ending ball that same size. Are you solid rubber bouncy balls, Squeak.
Ing tuba balls, Whiffle balls with all the holes in it, Even the squeaky chewing balls. As long as there are that same size.
love the product. I've been using them for a few years.

Lightweight Balls
Color: A.Orange+Blue+Green
lightweight but solid. Unfortunately, I can't bring to dog park for my dog to play with as the larger dogs will destroy them. Not for dogs that chew through everything.
