Now a television mini-series airing on National Geographic May 2020A Washington Post Best Book of the Year & a New York Times Notable Book From the Pulitzer Prize---winning author of The Shipping News and "Brokeback Mountain," comes the New York Times bestselling epic about the demise of the world's forests: "Barkskins is grand entertainment in the tradition of Dickens and Tolstoy...the crowning achievement of Annie Proulx's distinguished career, but also perhaps the greatest environmental novel ever written" (San Francisco Chronicle). In the late seventeenth century two young Frenchmen, Ren Sel and Charles Duquet, arrive in New France. Bound to a feudal lord for three years in exchange for land, they become wood-cutters--barkskins. Ren suffers extraordinary hardship, oppressed by the forest he is charged with clearing. He is forced to marry a native woman and their descendants live trapped between two cultures. But Duquet runs away, becomes a fur trader, then sets up a timber business. Annie Proulx tells the stories of the descendants of Sel and Duquet over three hundred years--their travels across North America, to Europe, China, and New Zealand--the revenge of rivals, accidents, pestilence, Indian attacks, and cultural annihilation. Over and over, they seize what they can of a presumed infinite resource, leaving the modern-day characters face to face with possible ecological collapse. "A stunning, bracing, full-tilt ride through three hundred years of US and Canadian history...with the type of full-immersion plot that keeps you curled in your chair, reluctant to stop reading" (Elle), Barkskins showcases Proulx's inimitable genius of creating characters who are so vivid that we follow them with fierce attention. "This is Proulx at the height of her powers as an irreplaceable American voice" (Entertainment Weekly, Grade A), and Barkskins "is an awesome monument of a book" (The Washington Post)--"the masterpiece she was meant to write" (The Boston Globe). As Anthony Doerr says, "This magnificent novel possesses the dark humor of The Shipping News and the social awareness of 'Brokeback Mountain.'"

surprised me
I absolutely love this shoulder bag! The quality really surprised me and in a good way. The faux leather has such a smooth, polished look and feels soft but still very durable. It honestly gives that high-end vibe without the expensive price tag. The size is perfect for everyday use. It’s roomy enough to fit all my essentials like my phone, wallet, keys, and even some extra items like makeup, but it doesn’t feel bulky or oversized. I also really appreciate the inner pockets because they help keep everything organized instead of just throwing everything into one big space. Another thing I love is how practical it is. The material is water-resistant, which is a huge plus and if anything spills or it gets a little wet, it’s super easy to just wipe clean. It still looks brand new after using it regularly. The design is simple but very stylish, which makes it easy to pair with almost any outfit. I’ve worn it casually, out running errands, and even with more dressed-up looks, and it always works. It’s definitely one of those go-to bags you can grab every day. This bag is a great mix of style, functionality, and durability. I’m really impressed with it and would definitely recommend it if you’re looking for a cute, everyday handbag!

Perfect Everyday Bag That Goes with Everything
This purse is everything! I love the size, the material, and the fact that it has the perfect amount of compartments to keep everything organized without feeling bulky. It’s officially become my everyday bag.
The strap is the perfect length and feels really sturdy. It’s cute enough for casual days but also works for going out to dinner, which I love. I’m always looking for something versatile since I don’t like switching bags all the time, and this one checks all the boxes.
The zipper is smooth and feels durable, not flimsy at all. Overall, it feels well made, looks great, and holds up to daily use. Definitely a great find!

Versatile, Elegant, Looks Expensive
Color: Black, Color: Black
I purchased this purse in black and tan, and love them the both. The tan is a true tan (my pic makes it look whiter/lighter); the black is a rich, deep black. The gold hardware is a gilded gold, not brassy gold and looks expensive. I added purse extenders (gold balls on the tan and black hearts on the black) that I purchased separately on Amazon to personalize the look, and am even more in love. The purses themselves are high quality pebbled leather, lined with a deep zippered side pocket on the inside. The zippers zip smoothly and easily. The hardware clasps of the crossbody chain seem sturdy and can be removed or altered easily, allowing for a variety of styles and looks. The crossbody chain lays flat and doesn’t tangle snag, kink, or pinch when worn. I am pleasantly surprised with the overall quality given the incredible price. I highly recommend this purse for its elegance, versatility, and quality.

Real leather!
Color: Black
There is nothing more disappointing than grabbing a favorite (vegan leather/pleather/vinyl/man-made exterior) purse out of the closet only to find that it has started to peel and disintegrate. No more!! From now on, I'm only buying leather, and this purse is real leather! Beautiful dand large enough for cell phone, comb, lipstick, glasses, and credit cards/cash, with a design that can transition from daytime to night. This purse is a winner!
