Description:
Winner of the Orwell Prize 2024- the exhilarating story of the greatest border breach in Cold War history
A gripping reconstruction of the daring escape to freedom of hundreds of East Germans in the summer of 1989 and how it led to the fall of the Berlin Wall.
In August 1989, a group of Hungarian activists did the unthinkable- they entered the forbidden militarised zone of the Iron Curtain - and held a picnic. On wisps of rumour, thousands of East German 'holiday-makers' had made their way to the border, surveilled by lurking Stasi agents. The stage was set for the greatest border breach in Cold War history. The fall of the Berlin Wall, the end of the Soviet Union - the so-called end of history - all would flow from what happened next. Drawing on dozens of original interviews with those involved, Matthew Longo reconstructs this world-shaping event and its tumultuous aftermath.

A total game changer (where were these when I was a teen?!)
Size: 72 Count (Pack of 1)
I honestly wish these had been around when I was younger! The Mighty Patch Original is hands-down the most effective way I’ve found to deal with stubborn whiteheads. Instead of picking at my skin and making things worse, I just pop one of these on at night and let it do the work while I sleep.
By the morning, you can actually see the gunk it pulled out right on the patch (gross, but strangely satisfying). It significantly reduces the size and redness of the zit in just one use, and because it covers the spot, it stops me from touching it and causing more irritation.
The 72-count pack is a great value and lasts quite a while. They stay put all night, even if you toss and turn, and they’re clear enough that you almost forget you’re wearing them. If you’re looking for a stress-free way to clear up your skin overnight, these are a must-have!

Works on all skin types
Size: 36 Count (Pack of 1)
What an amazing product! I'm in my 40s and still experience occasional acne. I purchased Mighty Patch, and after wearing it overnight, my blemish was noticeably cleared up by morning.
I have fairly dry skin and already use quality skincare products both morning and night, so I was impressed by how well it worked. My 17-year-old son also tried one when he started getting a few breakouts, and it cleared up his blemish as well. His skin is much oilier than mine, which shows that this product can be effective for both dry and oily skin types.
I’m very happy with the results and will definitely be purchasing it again!

Doesn't replace good hygiene efforts
Size: 36 Count (Pack of 1)
It's not a miracle patch if that's what people are buying it for. The patch, once skin has been cleansed and dried, adheres well and stays put overnight. The patch does pull out dead white cells but never has it been one patch and done. I am finding that another patch has to go on to the blemish as it's now open and very red. So depending on how big the blemish is, determins how many patches you will need to fully clear up. On a great note: It does help with preveting me from touching it or picking at it which does indeed help the blemish heal faster. I keep a box in my medicine cabinet for really big, very noticable , blemishes, but I don't find it very cost effective nor do I find that my blemishes are cleared up 100% with use. It's really more a matter of: stop touching your face with dirty hands, don't go to bed with makeup on, stop squeezing/popping white heads, invest in a good facial cleanser with proven ingredients. There is no miracle patch. It's an good product for sure, but not a miracle. It will not replace good hygeine and a good cleanser.

Excellent quality

Another household staple. This are cheaper than the name brand but work just as good. Cotton is nice and thick, the stick holding it is sturdy.
