So announces the narrator of Loving Sabotage, Amelie Nothomb's critically acclaimed novel about a young girl who seems already stripped of illusions. The daughter of diplomats posted in Peking for three years in the mid-seventies, our unnamed narrator charges about her tightly enclosed world of the concrete ghetto of San Li Tun on her horse -- her bicycle -- with the dictatorial clarity and loneliness of a warrior-philosopher. From puberty onwards, she announces at one point, life is just an epilogue. On the battlefield of an asphalt playground, in between wars with the children of other nations, she discovers her first love: six-year-old Elena, her coldly indifferent Helen of Troy. But she soon learns life's hardest rule: if she wants to be loved, she must be cruel in return.A fast, furious -- and often hilarious -- novel of childhood infatuation and intuited truths, Loving Sabotage chronicles one girl's precocious understanding of the struggles and pains of adult life.Binding Type: Paperback

Cute great size got a lot of compliments
Color: Obsidian Black
Loved this. Got it on sale dor 34.99 and worth it it seems like a good staple for events / outtings. Even daily use probably, but I got it for a wedding event.weekend and got so many compliments!
Good closure zipper had no issues.
I like the material doesn’t look or feel cheap, good color. (I got black) but saw someone at event with gold one and also adorable!!!
Storage is huge for me - it easily fit my phone, a couple of pads and tampons, small hand sanitizer, small aquaphor with room! I also had sunglasses in there at one point and surprisingly zipped fine with all of that.
Overall convenient for storage, aesthetically pleasing, good material-quality.
Cons: the chain strap bothered my neck a little bit after wearing it but that’s a me problem. Not the purse/way it was made. But something to consider.

Cute and versatile clutch purse
Color: Apricot Beige
Very nicely made, can use as a clutch, a shoulder or the chain can be doubled and makes a great little purse, roomy and closes with a zipper so you don't lose things like I do. Will probably get more in different colors, soft leathery material.
