The Death of the Heart is perhaps Elizabeth Bowen's best-known book. As she deftly and delicately exposes the cruelty that lurks behind the polished surfaces of conventional society, Bowen reveals herself as a masterful novelist who combines a sense of humor with a devastating gift for divining human motivations. In this piercing story of innocence betrayed set in the thirties, the orphaned Portia is stranded in the sophisticated and politely treacherous world of her wealthy half-brother's home in London.There she encounters the attractive, carefree cad Eddie. To him, Portia is at once child and woman, and her fears her gushing love. To her, Eddie is the only reaason to be alive. But when Eddie follows Portia to a sea-side resort, the flash of a cigarette lighter in a darkened cinema illuminates a stunning romantic betrayal--and sets in motion one of the most moving and desperate flights of the heart in modern literature.Binding Type: Paperback

Perfect Summer Essential – Comfortable and Breathable!
Size: Medium, Color: 1 White
I’m really impressed with these cotton pants. They are incredibly lightweight and breathable, which makes them perfect for the beach or just staying cool in the summer heat. The elastic waist and drawstring ensure a perfect fit, and the 100% cotton fabric feels high-quality and soft. I ordered my usual medium, and they fit perfectly—just the right balance of relaxed and stylish. Definitely a 5-star purchase for anyone needing comfortable casual trousers!

100% cotton, but still easy care
Size: Large, Color: Khaki 2
I bought 5 of these pants and I am glad that I did. The elastic waists are easy pull up and down (especially for the mobility handicapped like me). They wash and dry nicely - I don't bother ironing them. They are nice, light summer pants (good year round in FL).

Sizing is off.
Size: Small, Color: 3 Black
Much shorter than expected. Poor fit in the legs as well, at least for me. I’d say they are a couple inches shorter than the size chart. I expected them to be short, but not waiting for a flood. Material was nice but overall not a good fit for me.
