The first new English translation for more than 35 years of Balzac's extraordinary The Wild Ass's Skin, it is also the first edition in English to include Balzac's original Preface of 1831. This novel has been freshly translated by Helen Constantine, who captures Balzac's stylistic energy and exuberance. Patrick Coleman's wide-ranging introduction considers the multiple perspectives of the novel, its conceptualization of historical change, and its satirical commentary on contemporary society. His extensive notes clarify Balzac's many allusions to the culture and society of his time. The book also includes an up-to-date bibliography and helpful map of Paris in 1830.

Love it!
Color: C-Black, Size: Model C Rechargeable
Love mine! No more batteries. I make at least two cups a day and froth my creamer. Love the fact I don’t have to recharge very often.

I love this milk frother, a must have for coffee lovers!
Color: Silver
I absolutely love this Bonsenkitchen milk frother! It creates the perfect foam in seconds and my coffee has never tasted so good. The rechargeable feature is so convenient and I love that it comes with a stand to keep it organized on my counter. It is easy to use, easy to clean and works perfectly every single time. If you love coffee at home this frother is a game changer, it makes you feel like you are at a coffee shop without spending a fortune. Highly recommend!

Does the job!
Color: Silver
Great frother. Love that it's rechargeable. 3 speeds, double frothing ring. This one is way better than my last, battery operated one. A lot of people giving are negative reviews or deductin stars because they think you have to cycle through the speeds to turn it off - they're wrong. You just hold the button for a couple of seconds and it turns off. Highly recommend!

Stand was my favorite part, hated how close off and higher speed is
Color: Silver
Well the first lesson is dont hit the power button to turn off, as it goes to 2nd speed and slings your drink everywhere. Im not happy with the stability of the brother, had better, as free with coffees. Positive is, it has a stand, it does have 3 speeds, just never needed the other two speeds, and if you dont hold power button long enough to turn off, it goes into higher speed.
