"A delectable comedy of manners." --Boston Globe The Ridolfi are a Florentine family of long lineage and little money. It is 1955, Italy is still struggling back after the war, and the family, like its decrepit villa and farm, has seen better days. Among the Ridolfi, only eighteen-year-old Chiara shows anything like vitality. But it's a vitality matched by innocence--a dangerous combination, to herself and to all who love her. Chiara sets her heart on the bull-headed Salvatore, a brilliant young doctor from the south who resolved long ago to be emotionally dependent on no one. Stymied, she calls on her resourceful English girlfriend, Barney, to help her make the impossible match. And so ensues a comedy of errors, in which guileless lovers, with the best of intentions, considerable charm, and the kindest of instincts, succeed in making one another thoroughly and astonishingly miserable. "An exquisite mosaic, where every tiny piece is part of a world." --A. S. Byatt, Threepenny ReviewBinding Type: Paperback

Good product, good value
This is a nice set of Vaseline products. I had never heard of the balm stick and I am so glad that I tried it. It works great on my itchy eyelids. I have been using the lotion for many years, in one formulation or another, but the yellow variety since the 70's. It works so nice after getting some sun and it smells good. Then there is the old fashioned Vaseline in a jar. Always need that on hand. The combination set was a good value.

Hand Lotion STRONG SMELL!
The collection is a good price and good quality but I had to give the hand lotion away as the smell is SO strong. Next time I will just order the Jelly Stick as it is fantastic, so smooth ~ no comparison with other brands, this is the best.
