A winning, irreverent debut novel about a family wrestling with its future and its past--for readers of J. Courtney Sullivan, Meg Wolitzer, Mona Simpson, and Jhumpa LahiriNAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY THE BOSTON GLOBE, KIRKUS REVIEWS, BUSTLE, AND EMILY GOULD, THE MILLIONS
With depth, heart, and agility, debut novelist Mira Jacob takes us on a deftly plotted journey that ranges from 1970s India to suburban 1980s New Mexico to Seattle during the dot.com boom. The Sleepwalker's Guide to Dancing is an epic, irreverent testimony to the bonds of love, the pull of hope, and the power of making peace with life's uncertainties. Celebrated brain surgeon Thomas Eapen has been sitting on his porch, talking to dead relatives. At least that is the story his wife, Kamala, prone to exaggeration, tells their daughter, Amina, a photographer living in Seattle. Reluctantly Amina returns home and finds a situation that is far more complicated than her mother let on, with roots in a trip the family, including Amina's rebellious brother Akhil, took to India twenty years earlier. Confronted by Thomas's unwillingness to explain himself, strange looks from the hospital staff, and a series of puzzling items buried in her mother's garden, Amina soon realizes that the only way she can help her father is by coming to terms with her family's painful past. In doing so, she must reckon with the ghosts that haunt all of the Eapens. Praise for The Sleepwalker's Guide to Dancing "With wit and a rich understanding of human foibles, Jacob unspools a story that will touch your heart."--People "Optimistic, unpretentious and refreshingly witty."--Associated Press "By turns hilarious and tender and always attuned to shifts of emotion . . . Jacob's] characters shimmer with life."--Entertainment Weekly "A rich, engrossing debut told with lightness and care."--The Kansas City Star " A] sprawling, poignant, often humorous novel . . . Told with humor and sympathy for its characters, the book serves as a bittersweet lesson in the binding power of family, even when we seek to break out from it."--O: The Oprah Magazine "Moving forward and back in time, Jacob balances comedy and romance with indelible sorrow. . . . When her plot springs surprises, she lets them happen just as they do in life: blindsidingly right in the middle of things."--The Boston Globe

I may buy it again
Size: 3.5 Ounce (Pack of 1)
I do like this soap but my skin is still very dry. It does not irritate my skin so that is a plus.
I think another person asked if its one or two bars to an order. the answer is one bar. In still deciding if I will order it again.

Waste of money for me
Size: 3.5 Ounce (Pack of 1)
I brought this product to see if it would help my 1 year old skin because she have a lot of break out and her break out gets badly inflamed and puffy. I try this product and it actually made it worse. It say it help for itching but my child itching increase. It dry up her skin and left like a chalky feel on the skin. I really wish I could get my money back.
