A short, powerful new novel by one of the greatest writers in the German language.
On a Dark Night I Left My Silent House is Nobel Prize-winning author Peter Handke's evocative, moving, often fantastic, novel about one man's conflict with himself and his journey toward resolution.During one night shift, an unnamed, middle-aged pharmacist in Taxham, an isolated suburb of Salzburg, tells his story to a narrator. The pharmacist is known and well-respected, but lonely and estranged from his wife. He feels most comfortable wandering about in nature, collecting and eating hallucinogenic mushrooms. One day he receives a blow to the head that leaves him unable to speak, and the narrative is transformed from ironic description into a collection of sensual impressions, observations and reflections. The pharmacist, who is now called the driver, sets out on a quest, travelling into the Alps with two companions--a former Olympic skiing champion and a formerly famous poet--where he is beaten and later stalked by a woman. He drives through a tunnel and has a premonition of death, then finds himself in a surreal, foreign land. In a final series of bizarre, cathartic events, the driver regains his speech and is taken back to his pharmacy--back to his former life, but forever changed. A powerful, poetic exploration of language, longing and dislocation in the human experience, On a Dark Night I Left My Silent House reveals Handke at his magical best.

Great toothpaste.
Size: Pack of 1, 4 Ounce, Set name: B. Whitening
This is by far really great toothpaste. I can tell the difference in the color of my teeth. And sometimes my teeth are kinda sensitive to harsh toothpaste. But this is good for sensitive teeth. And minty flavor is not to strong either. Try it. I hope it works for you as well as It does for me. 🤗

Gentle and Pleasant to Use
Size: Pack of 2, 1.3 Ounce, Set name: A. Ela Mint
This toothpaste feels gentle on sensitive teeth and has a clean, refreshing taste without being too strong. The texture is smooth, and it leaves my mouth feeling fresh after brushing.
I also like that it uses nano hydroxyapatite instead of fluoride, which makes it an interesting alternative to traditional toothpaste.
Overall, a good toothpaste for sensitive teeth and daily use.

Great natural fiber soap bags
I'm a soap maker who lives with teenagers who always seem to get everything absolutely soaked in the bathroom. I invested in these bags as a way to help my soap last longer while providing some scrub without adding exfoliators to the formula.
They are well made, a good value, and I love that they are made out of natural fibers. They dry out quickly, are not too rough, but still provide nice exfoliation.
I will definitely purchase again.

Great, small investment
This set of bags was a great value for my money. Soaps all sizes fit in there perfectly. This is a very versatile item. I use one of mine in my bedroom for dry garbage like gum, wrappers and tissues, then empty it weekly. It’s a great quality. It’s all natural very durable. And the main reason why I got these is because they also exfoliate.

Nice bags for a good price.
The bag works well and I like the way it closes. If it was a little bit bigger where the soap could move freely I would have given it 5 stars.
