*Shortlisted for the Miles Franklin Literary Award 2020*
Elizabeth posts a 'room for rent' notice
in Trevor's bookshop and is caught off-guard when Trevor answers the ad himself. She expected a young student not a middle-aged bookseller whose
marriage has fallen apart. But Trevor is attracted to Elizabeth's house because
of the empty shed in her backyard, the perfect space for him to revive the
artistic career he abandoned years earlier. The face-blind, EH Holden-driving
Elizabeth is a solitary and feisty book editor, and she accepts him, on
probation...
Miles Franklin finalist Philip Salom has a
gift for depicting the inner states of his characters with empathy and insight.
In this poignant yet upbeat novel the past keeps returning in the most
unexpected ways. Elizabeth is at the beck and call of her ageing mother, and
the associated memories of her childhood in a Rajneesh community. Trevor's
Polish father disappeared when Trevor was fifteen, and his mother died not
knowing whether he was dead or alive. The authorities have declared him dead,
but is he?
The
Returns
is a story about the eccentricities, failings and small triumphs that humans
are capable of, a novel that pokes fun at literary and artistic pretensions,
while celebrating the expansiveness of art, kindness and friendship.
'Philip Salom...dissects the vulnerabilities of the human condition (loneliness, fear of intimacy, powerlessness, guilt), the power of the past to haunt us, the fear of the future to mire us, and the redemptive effects of love and acceptance.' — Miles Franklin Award Judges on Waiting<

Perfect for me (update, took 1 star away) (2nd update Jul 20, 2022)
Size: 8, Color: Pastel Pack, Size: 8, Color: Pastel Pack
This product is amazing. You get 10 pairs of underwear in 5 pastel colors. Colors are exactly as shown. I used an 18 inch ruler in my pictures to show size and stretchability. The height from pant leg bottom to waist line is long so you dont worry about any buttcrack showing. It covers your thighs, too. These are nice because they added some space between the legs instead of stitching it like yoga pants where the pants legs come up and just merge together at the crotch. This underwear gives room for your lady bits and prevents cameltoes/front wedgies. The fabric on the hip area is just as stretchable as the waistband.
2021 September edit: I still love these and so I bought another pack. Simply because my other, uncomfortable underwear (not this pack) has irritated me enough. I realized that I was usually happier with my clothing when I was wearing these underwear because they are just so comfortable (and my fav colors)! They have held up very well and at least with the pastel pack, the colors still look good. The writing on the inside has held up as well. $50 for 10 super comfy pairs of underwear is great imo.
Second update: I compared my new pairs to my old ones (ssme size ordered) and the waistband used to be manufactured to stretch about 2 more inches or so. The new way they created the hem is less stretchy so I took a star off my rating. My newer pairs of this underwesr will be my last choice to wear for the day compared to my first order. The blue pair in the video is part of my first order of these and pink is a pair from my newer purchase. Yes that video was a bit tricky to make lol. The pink pair was made in Pakistan and the blue was made in India.
Jul 20th update: I now have significant holes in my first pairs. But this is due to both lots of wearing, and also because my cats like to knead on my clean clothes.

Mixed Feelings
Ok, so... It seems there's not much quality control for these underpants. About half of them have the back seam way too short so it doesn't come as far up in the back as it should, making it very uncomfortable if you wear them and bend forward. Be aware that there are four pretty thick seams on them. Two going right up the front and back and the two on the sides. Positives are the colors are great, and the material is very soft. I actually just wear these to bed, inside-out because of the harsh seams, and I wear them two sizes bigger than I am so they are nice and loose. I ordered my correct size to wear regularly and found that the inconsistency in the back seam was just too much for me. I will not be ordering these again.

Buyer beware
Size: 8, Color: Pastel Pack
Got these and tried on one pair cause seriously who tries on all 10 pairs when they buy underwear. They fit good a little loose but I figure they will shrink a little in the dryer. So as the label states wash before wearing I washed them all. Well then I go to put a pair on and they are way to small and I'm thinking there is no way they shrunk that much in the dryer which was on low setting. So I try on a different color one on and they fit fine. So now I'm trying more on and same thing some are good, some are small and some are big. What the heck they all say the same size inside. So this is clearly a manufacturing defect issue so I reach out to the seller. Well after going back and forth they only want to give me 30% of my purchase price back due to me having washed them and now they can't resell them. Well from where I'm sitting you shouldn't be trying to resell them anyway because they aren't even the same size. I don't usually leave bad reviews but after having read so many good ones on here and that being the reason why I bought them I figure people should be aware that they to may have the issue. So try them all on before washing.
