Description:
In 1990, Myles chose Rosie from a litter on the street, and their connection instantly made an indelible impact on the writer's way of being. Over the course of sixteen years together, Myles was devoted to the pit bull and their linked quality of life. And starting from the emptiness following Rosie's death, Afterglow launches a playful and incisive investigation into the mostly mutually beneficial, sometimes reprehensible power dynamics between pet and pet-owner. At the same time, it reimagines Myles's experiences with alcoholism and recovery, intimacy and mourning, celebrity and politics, spirituality and family history, while joyously transcending the parameters of memoir.
Moving from an imaginary talk show where Rosie is interviewed by Myles's childhood puppet, to a critical reenactment of the night Rosie mated with another pit bull; from shimmering poetic transcriptions of video footage taken during their walks, to Rosie's final enlightened narration from the afterlife, this totally singular text combines elements of science fiction, screenplay, monologue, and lucid memory to get to the heart of how and why we dedicate our existence to our dogs.

Very functional and spacious!
Color: Upgrade-apricot, Size: 16 Inch
I wasn’t expecting to love this backpack as much as I do, but wow —it’s everything I wanted and more. The apricot color is soft and pretty without being too “girly,” and the fabric has a nice matte texture that feels durable yet lightweight. It doesn’t have a plasticky smell at all, just a clean, new bag scent right out of the packaging. The compartments are super well thought out. I can fit my 16-inch laptop, chargers, skincare pouch, and even a change of clothes without the bag looking bulky. The back padding is surprisingly comfy, especially during long airport days, and the straps don’t dig into my shoulders. It sits well on my carry-on handle, making it the perfect travel companion. If you’re into functionality and aesthetics, this is it.

One of my Favorite Blouses!
Color: Navy Blue, Size: Large, Color: Navy Blue, Size: Large
This is the perfect top when you want to have a little dressier look than a t shirt, but you still are dressing casual or you could even dress it up because the material is just so nice. . I bought my usual size which is large. It’s a little bit loose, which I like, but not oversized. It comes down to around mid rear end . It is a half sleeve or almost a half sleeve, so it covers the batwing area.
It is a high crew neck, but not uncomfortable. It basically stays wrinkle, free almost all day long and after you wash it, it is ready to wear. Speaking of washing, the garment says to put in a separate bag and wash in the machine. I did not put it in a separate bag because I didn’t read the instructions, but I had no problem afterwards. It does say hang to drive which I always do anyway, and the blouse looks brand new after several washings.
The top is very well-made, very department store like looking. I purchased two of them, the navy and the white. The white is a little sheer, but not too bad that you have to wear something underneath it because it is a loose fit, it looks put together.
The price was great as I got it on a deal.

Super cute summer T-shirt!
Color: Black, Size: Small
Surprisingly cute! I thought it looked kinda neat and it turned out pretty great! I got a white one too! The fabric is cool and lightweight. It's different and I like that! It does wrinkle but no biggie. I was looking for a longer sleeve T-shirt and this exceeded my expectations!
