The masterpiece of Shirley Hazzard (1931-2016), The Transit of Venus won the National Book Critics' Circle Award and was a finalist for the National Book Award. The Transit of Venus is considered Shirley Hazzard's most brilliant novel. It tells the story of two orphan sisters, Caroline and Grace Bell, as they leave Australia to start a new life in post-war England. What happens to these young women--seduction and abandonment, marriage and widowhood, love and betrayal--becomes as moving and wonderful and yet as predestined as the transits of the planets themselves. Gorgeously written and intricately constructed, Hazzard's novel is a story of place: Sydney, London, New York, Stockholm; of time: from the fifties to the eighties; and above all, of women and men in their passage through the displacements and absurdities of modern life.Binding Type: Paperback

An actually comfortable travel pillow!
Color: White, Size: Medium
Perfect travel pillow. Enough stuffing and never felt too small. I've used it on multiple camping trip so far.

Soft, Comfortable, and Great for Camping
Color: Grey, Size: L-23 X 16 Inch
I bought this travel pillow for my son’s first camping trip, and I was really impressed. It’s incredibly soft, nice and fluffy, and made a big difference in keeping him comfortable overnight. It was such a hit that I think his dad was a little jealous I didn’t get him one too!
It also packed up easily and fit back into its bag without a struggle, which is a huge plus when you’re camping. It held up well during the trip and did exactly what we needed it to do.
My only criticism is that it’s a little pricey for what it is. That said, once you feel the quality and comfort, you can understand why. Overall, I would definitely recommend it.

Comfy and practical
Color: Grey, Size: S-16 X 12 Inch
The best travel pillow for anyone looking for an actual pillow and not just neck support. We have used it on several trips both on a plane and in the car and it is great for both!

Good pillow, useless case
Color: Grey, Size: S-16 X 12 Inch
Nice pillow, small and portable. No horrible smell. Negative 1 star for the carrying case which is twice the size of the pillow. If you think you will use it to compress your pillow for travel, think again. It just expands back in the bag. Totally useless unless you’d like to store rocks in the bag instead.
