Description:
It's winter in Sokcho, a tourist town on the border between South and North Korea. The cold slows everything down. Bodies are red and raw, the fish turn venomous, beyond the beach guns point out from the North's watchtowers. A young French Korean woman works as a receptionist in a tired guesthouse. One evening, an unexpected guest arrives- a French cartoonist determined to find inspiration in this desolate landscape. The two form an uneasy relationship. When she agrees to accompany him on trips to discover an "authentic" Korea, they visit snowy mountaintops and dramatic waterfalls, and cross into North Korea. But he takes no interest in the Sokcho she knows - the gaudy neon lights, the scars of war, the fish market where her mother works. As she's pulled into his vision and taken in by his drawings, she strikes upon a way to finally be seen.
An exquisitely-crafted debut, which won the Prix Robert Walser, Winter in Sokcho is a novel about shared identities and divided selves, vision and blindness, intimacy and alienation. Elisa Shua Dusapin's voice is distinctive and unmistakable.
'Mysterious, beguiling, and glowing with tender intelligence, Winter in Sokcho is a master class in tension and atmospherics, a study of the delicate, murky filaments of emotion that compose a life. Dusapin has a rare and ferocious gift for pinning the quick, slippery, liveness of feeling to the page- her talent is a thrill to behold.'
-Alexandra Kleeman, author of You Too Can Have a Body Like Mine
'Enigmatic, beguiling ... This finely crafted debut explores topics of identity and heredity in compelli

This is an excellent eye lid moisturizer.
This is the mist soothing eye cream I have ever used! I have been applying it several times a day since I received it and the dryness is clearing up.

Best eye cream ever
I’m in my 40s and I’ve never been able to wear an eye cream without irritation. I also have eczema. I recently had extreme allergic reactions secondary to a house flood. this product was immediately calming producing reduction in itching redness, and scaliness within 24 hours.
After a month, I have less fine lines and my eyelids are incredibly soft. I will absolutely buy this on repeat and I have few products I use often.

Absorbing moisture
Size: 10.14 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I really like this lotion. It’s fragrance free, lightweight, absorbs well, not a thick lotion that sits on top of the skin but absorbs into the skin. Incredibly moisturizing and not irritating for sensitive skin. Great product!

My holy grail
Size: 10.14 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
This is my favourite body lotion by far. I've been using it for over a year and there is comparison how it makes my skin feel - extremely soft and hydrated. The biggest difference i notice the next day - it feels just moisturized. I live in Colorado and in winter I used to wake up at night due to my skin being dry and itchy. Just hours after I applied lotion. Not with this one. It also absorbs very quickly. I've also been using on my face under sunscreen in the morning.

Helping my PR
Size: 10.14 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Helping my Pityriasis rosea! Redness going away and flare spots clearing up very quickly. I’ve had PR for about 6 months now and I haven’t had any other product help so much so fast. I think it’s mostly the niacin but this is a nice product.
