A haunting novel about identity, dislocation, and history, Teju Cole's Open City is a profound work by an important new author who has much to say about our country and our world.

Along the streets of Manhattan, a young Nigerian doctor named Julius wanders, reflecting on his relationships, his recent breakup with his girlfriend, his present, his past. He encounters people from different cultures and classes who will provide insight on his journey--which takes him to Brussels, to the Nigeria of his youth, and into the most unrecognizable facets of his own soul.

"A psychological hand grenade."--The Atlantic

"Magnificent . . . a remarkably resonant feat of prose."--The Seattle Times

"A precise and poetic meditation on love, race, identity, friendship, memory, and] dislocation."--The Economist

you need this in your life
Color: Rose Gold #01, Size: 1 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Color: Rose Gold #01, Size: 1 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I’ve used this body liquid shimmer oil three times already for photo shoots, and it has completely become my go-to for glowing skin. If your skin ever looks dull or never quite “camera ready,” this product instantly changes that. It gives an intense, beautiful shimmer that makes the skin look smooth, radiant, and glowy without looking cheap or overdone. It also helps blur the look of imperfections while adding a really stunning sparkle that catches the light perfectly. if you are into camera photography, you need this. What impressed me most is that it doesn’t transfer and actually stays put through sweat, movement, and long wear. It lasts all day and doesn’t get on clothing, which is rare for body shimmer products. I even used it for my birthday and everyone was obsessed with how glowing the skin looked they kept asking me for the link. I didn’t expect much at first, but it completely exceeded my expectations. It’s easy to apply, dries down well, and is honestly my holy grail for any outfit showing skin. it makes my skin look so perfect up to the point where it’s kind of uncanny.

Will purchase again & again ✨
Color: Glistening Bronze #03, Size: 1 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I love this product so much! I don’t know what TJ other reviews are talking about by saying it doesn’t last long - when I apply this, it lasts all day. I did a darker shade than I thought I should but that worked out great because it makes me look tanner and makes my skin look so shiny, glittery, and even. For the price, you can’t beat this product. I get excited to put it on! Do yourself a favor & get this. You deserve to feel pretty and shiny :)

Gorgeous summer glow anytime

The body shimmer is like being kissed by warm summer breeze a glow of star dust. It lights not sticky or tacky. It gloriously luxurious but simple way to step a look.
