The Lie"Lyrical and haunting With this novel, Dunmore should rank high among writers like Kipling who explore war, its aftermath, and its lies."

"Lyrical and haunting...With this novel, Dunmore should rank high among writers like Kipling who explore war, its aftermath, and its lies."--Washington Independent Review of Books

"A poignant reminder that throughout history, the battle is far from over after a soldier returns home....As this impeccable and finely wrought literary tale winds to a chilling conclusion, readers will themselves be haunted by its evocative portrayal of a life-defining friendship and loss."--Bookpage

Published during the centenary of World War One to astonishing reviews and selected as a Richard and Judy Summer 2014 Book Club Pick in the UK, The Lie is a spellbinding tale of love, remembrance, and deception, set before, during and immediately after World War I, from Orange Prize-winning author, Helen Dunmore.

Daniel Branwell has survived the First World War and returned to the small Cornwall fishing town where he was born. As he struggles to make a living in the aftermath of war, Daniel is drawn deeper and deeper into the traumas of the past and memories of his dearest friend and his first love. Set in France during the First World War and in postwar England, The Lie is a deeply moving and mesmerizing story from one of our most preeminent storytellers.

"Devastating and triumphant...wholly satisfying. Endings are often the hardest beast for an author to tame, but Dunmore does it, with elegance, vigor and clarity."--The Denver Post

"Heartbreaking."--Kirkus Reviews

" A]moving and complex novel...Dunmore does a superb job of capturing her lead's inner torment, even as his story creeps toward a shattering conclusion."--Publishers Weekly (starred, boxed review)

Lovely product, low ROI
Size: 4.2 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
The cream is lovely, not greasy, low odor, and beautifully hydrating. However, being quite the frugal customer, I cannot, in good conscientious, pay the cost per ounce.

Quality tallow in a giant container for an amazing price that doesn't bother my severe allergies!
Scent: Honey & Sweet Orange, Size: 5 Ounce (Pack of 1)
I have been using this product for 3 months and I love it! It is a thick consistency, like you would expect good quality tallow. It feels great on your skin and absorbs fairly quickly. It is a large size jar for the price, I still have over half left and I have used it on my neck and hands as well... sometimes on my legs. I am allergic to artificial fragrance, and this tallow does not bother me. The scent is pleasant, with a slight after-smell of tallow, but it is not unappealing. It is very moisturizing for many parts of the body, but I especially like it for my face and neck. My skin truly has a better glow and tone after using the product for a few months. I can't wait to see how great it will feel at the end of the jar!

Great value for the size. Easy to apply and absorbs quickly wherever you apply it. Does not leave any oily residue and it smells fragrant. Moisturizes and works quickly. Skin feels instantly smooth.

This product is da' BALM! (a softening balm that's the best moisturizer for all skin types!)
Scent: Honey & Sweet Orange, Size: 5 Ounce (Pack of 1)
So many of these are all over social media and I wasn't sure to order a whipped version, or just a balm, so I went with the balm and I'm totally satisfied. No breakouts to my sensitive, mature dry skin, and the scent is light citrus and non-lingering. I suggest to lightly swirl finger tips inside the container in a circular motion and scoop a tiny amount then rub both fingertips together to warm the product as this is key to make it glide smoothly onto your skin, otherwise, you are having to re-dip into the product and use more than you will need. I use it AM/PM right after my facial serums, and follow with SPF moisturizer. I'm not a fan of foundation or powder to avoid the caked on look, but use a little creme blush when heading to work, and will dab a little concealer where needed too. I've been using my Ancestral Haven Beef Tallow/Honey Balm a couple of weeks now and my pores seem smaller than when using any of my previous French pricey skin products! I use this on my face and lightly under eyes, neck, decollete and the heels/sides of my feet every morning. Any remaining product I apply to top my hands. It absorbs quickly without being greasy. If you experience an oily result, then lighten your next application as the product is light if you don't warm it up with your fingertips. I highly recommend and can't wait to tell my dermatologist about it too! Oh and my 86 years young mom uses this daily and loves it too! (Christmas gifts coming her way so she doesn't deplete my supply - lol).
