"An absorbing novel . . . reminds us of the complexity of the web woven by those threads of faith, nationality, politics and history."--New York Times Book Review "Aboulela has written a book for grown-ups... that speaks more forcefully than a thousand opinion pieces...she has done more than breathe life into legend." --San Francisco Chronicle From the first ever winner of the Caine Prize for African Writing, Leila Aboulela, The Kindness of Enemies is a powerful historical journey across time and continents and a riveting epic of love, betrayal, and war. It's 2010 and Natasha, a half-Russian, half-Sudanese professor of history, is researching the life of Imam Shamil, the nineteenth century Muslim leader who led the anti-Russian resistance in the Caucasian War. When Natasha discovers her star student, Osama (Oz), is not only descended from the warrior but also possesses Shamil's legendary sword, the Imam's story comes vividly to life. But when Oz is suddenly arrested at his home one morning, Natasha realizes that everything she values stands in jeopardy. Told with Aboulela's inimitable elegance, The Kindness of Enemies is both an engrossing story of a provocative period in history and an important examination of what it is to be a Muslim in a post-9/11 world. "A rich, multilayered story, a whole syllabus of compelling topics. As a novelist, Aboulela moves confidently between dramatizing urgent, contemporary issues and providing her audience with sufficient background to follow these discussions about the changing meaning of jihad, the history of Sufism and the racial politics of the war on terror."--Washington Post "Riveting . . . this novel] hums in hushed and meditative tones through prisoners of war in historic and contemporary fantasy rooted in reality."--Los Angeles TimesBinding Type: Paperback

Deceptive Advertising
There's a little bit of false advertising going on here unless you thoroughly read the description. There are three balls in the picture, but you are only purchasing two. Always read the whole description before buying!

Not the same rubber.
I just received these today. I already have two of the same size direct from the local pet store. The one thing I liked about them that made me want to buy more - my 13lb dog could chew on them all night and never leave a mark. The red one I received was as expected. The blue one I received was not made out of the same rubber. It was softer. We played catch a few times and it didn’t bounce the same. I looked away for 5 minutes and she had it already starting to shred. Not sure what happened but 1 of the 2 balls I was sent was not up to par, possibly defective.

Leave your skin looking radiant!
I’ve been using the Vaseline Illuminate Me Body Butter & Oil, and overall I really like it—it feels like a simple but effective everyday glow product.
The first thing I noticed is how soft and lightweight the body butter is. It melts into the skin easily without feeling heavy or greasy, and it leaves my skin feeling smooth and well moisturized. The hydration is definitely noticeable, especially on dry areas like elbows and legs.
I also love the subtle glow it gives. It’s not glittery or over-the-top—it’s more of a natural, healthy-looking sheen that makes your skin look radiant and refreshed. The body oil adds a nice finishing touch if you want a bit more shine, especially for nights out or warmer weather.
The scent is light and clean, which I appreciate because it doesn’t overpower perfumes or other body care products. It just gives that fresh, “put together” feeling after applying.
Another thing I like is that it layers well. You can use the butter alone for everyday moisture or pair it with the oil for a more luminous, highlighted look.
Overall, this is a great body care duo if you want hydration plus a soft glow. It’s not overly fancy, but it does exactly what it promises and leaves your skin looking healthy, smooth, and radiant.
