Here is E. L. Doctorow's debut novel, a searing allegory of frontier life that sets the stage for his subsequent classics. Hard Times is the name of a town in the barren hills of the Dakota Territory. To this town there comes one day one of the reckless sociopaths who wander the West to kill and rape and pillage. By the time he is through and has ridden off, Hard Times is a smoking ruin. The de facto mayor, Blue, takes in two survivors of the carnage-a boy, Jimmy, and a prostitute, Molly, who has suffered unspeakably-and makes them his provisional family. Blue begins to rebuild Hard Times, welcoming new settlers, while Molly waits with vengeance in her heart for the return of the outlaw.

"Terse and powerful."--Newsweek
"A taut, bloodthirsty read."--The Times Literary Supplement "A superb piece of fiction."--The New Republic

Lemon
Color: Red/Black/Digital
I love the watch design, but the watch itself is a complete lemon. I have bought this watch three separate times and it still does not work properly. The first time, the hour and minute hand swung freely in the watch. I returned it directly to Timex. The second time, I bought from Amazon thinking the first watch had defect and the return policy with Amazon is less cumbersome than Timex. Right out of the box, I set the date/time and played around with the features of the watch that I most commonly use, most the chrono function. When I press start on the chrono function, the watch completely blacks out and resets itself somehow, meaning I have to set the date/time again. I sent the watch back to Amazon for a replacement. When the new watch arrived...same issue...the watch resets itself every time I start the chrono function. Very disappointing. Come on, Timex. You are better than this.

Unfortunate
Color: Black/Black/Digital Neg Display
It’s a cool new design but the night light button stopped working within a month of buying it. Shouldn’t happen with a 150$ sports watch

Garbage
Color: Black/Black/Digital Neg Display
Absolute garbage. The date that came up was from 2022. Most buttons did not work. Once you got into changing the time, etc, the watch locked up and would not get out of 'timer' mode. The watch lost 10 minutes in three hours. Do not purchase.

Great Watch

Cheap buckle and band. Did not last one day
Color: Blue
Why did you pick this product vs others?:
Watch buckle is made of plastic that looks like metal. The watch band broke off the watch face 1 hour into my 12 hour shift. It LOOKS really cool. Love the Boho look, but the quality of the watch band and buckle are very cheap and not at all durable.
