Diana stands before the mirror preening with her best friend, Maureen. Suddenly, a classmate enters holding a gun, and Diana sees her life dance before her eyes. In a moment the future she was just imagining--a doting wife and mother at the age of forty--is sealed by a horrific decision she is forced to make. In prose infused with the dramatically feminine sensuality of spring, we experience seventeen-year-old Diana's uncertain steps into womanhood--her awkward, heated forays into sex; her fresh, fragile construction of an identity. Together with the sights and sounds of renewal, we experience the tasks of Diana's adulthood: protecting her beloved daughter and holding onto her successful husband.An acclaimed writer and poet, Laura Kasischke has crafted a consciousness that encompasses the truth of a teenager's world and the profound transformation of that world at midlife. Resonant and deeply stirring, The Life Before Her Eyes finds piercing beauty in the midst of a nightmare from long ago that echoes like a dirge beneath each new spring.

Thorough and Gentle
Size: 30 Count (Pack of 4)
Not super moist, but they are soft and do their job. I only use wipes if Iβm in a pinch to get my makeup off and donβt have my usual face wash. Iβm very satisfied with each type of wipe included in the bundle.

Buyer beware. For your sake read my review please.
Size: 30 Count (Pack of 4)
I loved the smell which can be kind off setting especially if unscented. However the love kind of stopped there. The size of the wipe it self was not much than one of those wipes you get at the BBQ store with dinner. I do not wear foundation or heavy makeup however I had to use 3 wipes each time before I felt my skin was clean. I was excited to have the different issues of my skin dealt with as far as anti-aging, pore refining etc but there was not a single bit of difference between the wipes other than the scent which again was very spa like and pleasant. Easy to like. Small wipe. Need several. By the time you add up the added cost of the extra towels each day and I could have purchased a much higher quality product. I don't forget to look at reviews very often, but this time they sounded so positive and I went ahead and purchased. Sorry I ever did but glad I didn't order two or three due to the sale on them.

Great for sensitive skin!
Size: 30 Count (Pack of 4)
Works really well. No burn. I have very sensitive skin and these have been great. Not overpowering.
