Award-winning author and powerhouse talent Roxane Gay burst onto the scene with An Untamed State and the New York Times bestselling essay collection Bad Feminist (Harper Perennial). Gay returns with Difficult Women, a collection of stories of rare force and beauty, of hardscrabble lives, passionate loves, and quirky and vexed human connection. The women in these stories live lives of privilege and of poverty, are in marriages both loving and haunted by past crimes or emotional blackmail. A pair of sisters, grown now, have been inseparable ever since they were abducted together as children, and must negotiate the elder sister's marriage. A woman married to a twin pretends not to realize when her husband and his brother impersonate each other. A stripper putting herself through college fends off the advances of an overzealous customer. A black engineer moves to Upper Michigan for a job and faces the malign curiosity of her colleagues and the difficulty of leaving her past behind. From a girls' fight club to a wealthy subdivision in Florida where neighbors conform, compete, and spy on each other, Gay delivers a wry, beautiful, haunting vision of modern America reminiscent of Merritt Tierce, Jamie Quatro, and Miranda July.Binding Type: Hardcover

Gorgeous!!
Color: Black/Dark Grey, Lens Width: 53 Millimeters
My new favorite sunglasses!
Love the design and shape of these, they’re high quality and well made.
Easily and securely fit my small framed face well and look so good on. I’ve gotten a ton of compliments and plan to purchase a second pair for my daughter who also loves them!

beautiful color and style
Color: Dark Green/Azure Internal Mirrored Silver, Lens Width: 53 Millimeters, Color: Dark Green/Azure Internal Mirrored Silver, Lens Width: 53 Millimeters
These are really beautiful sunglasses, with a thick, sturdy green frame and gorgeous emerald green crystal accents at the temples. The hinge is set inside the crystal, so when you fold the glasses, the crystal splits into two parts. It's a neat feature and really unique. The lenses are green but lightly mirrored. I love the style and color of these glasses, as they are definitely unusual and people will notice them.
They are, unfortunately, a little tight on my head. I am going to take them to my optician and see if they can be adjusted. I also believe these may have been tried on or used and returned, as the lenses are both smudged like someone handled them with dirty hands. The glasses do not seem to be damaged, but I would have expected a pristine pair at this price point.
They come with paperwork and a lens cloth, along with a case for carrying and storage. Paperwork says they are made by Luxottica, which is a high-end, luxury eyewear company in Milan, Italy, that owns or licenses many popular luxury eyewear brands. They are lovely glasses with very good quality, a fun upscale look, and tons of style. I like them a lot and expect many compliments on this eye-catching pair!

Super cute
Color: Pink/Pink Mirrored Pink, Lens Width: 53 Millimeters
These are super cute and really love them except they are a tad too heavy I think for glasses. Made very well with quality materials, I found no cosmetic imperfections on the glasses. The overall look and stye of these are great and I really do love them I just can't wear them for too long due to the weight it becomes irritating.
