'This is one of the most gripping accounts of an era spanning war defeat, humiliation and failed revolution in 1918 to the violence, intimidation and propaganda of the Nazis' rise to power in 1933. It contains many lessons for the world now.' - John Kampfner, bestselling author of Why The Germans Do It Better'Vertigo is outstanding. Harald Jähner’s gift for illuminating the big picture with telling detail gives the reader an uncanny sense of what it was actually like to be present in Germany during the Weimar Republic. This is history at its very best.' - Julia Boyd, bestselling author of Travellers in the Third ReichGermany, 1918: a country in flux. The First World War is over, the nation defeated. Revolution is afoot, the monarchy has fallen and the victory of democracy beckons. Everything must change with the times.

Out of the ashes of the First World War, Germany launches an unprecedented political project: its first democratic government. The Weimar Republic is established. The years that follow see political extremism, economic upheaval, revolutionary violence and the transformation of Germany. Tradition is shaken to its core as a triumphant procession of liberated lifestyles emerges. Women conquer the racetracks and tennis courts, go out alone in the evenings, cut their hair short and cast the idea of marriage aside. Unisex style comes into fashion, androgynous and experimental. People revel in the discovery of leisure, filling up boxing halls, dance palaces and the hotspots of the New Age, embracing the department stores’ promise of happiness and accepting the streets as a place of fierce political battles.

In this short burst of life between the wars, amidst a frenzy of change, comes a backlash from those who do not see themselves reflected in the new Republic. Little by little, deep divisions begin to emerge. Divisions that would bring devastating consequences, altering the course of the twentieth century and the lives of millions around the world. Vertigo is a vital, kaleidoscopic portrait of a pivotal moment in German history.

Praise for Aftermath by Harald Jähner:'Exemplary [and] important... This is the kind of book few writers possess the clarity of vision to write' - Max Hastings, Sunday Times'A masterpiece' - Spectator'Magnificent... There are great lessons in the nature of humanity to be learnt here' - Rupert Christiansen, The Telegraph'Jähner is masterly in telling the tragic, despicable, comedic and uplifting stories of those who were there' - Katja Hoyer, The Times'Thought-provoking... Jähner's unflinching account is a reminder that historical truths are rarely simple and always nuanced' - Daily Mail'A reminder that the German experience will always stand apart' - Economist

Fine Shimmer/Vanilla Cocoa Scent
Size: 6.8 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Feels like a high-end dupe. The inclusion of 100% pure cocoa butter and ultra-hydrating lipids is excellent for dry patches. It acts as an occlusive, meaning it seals in moisture and keeps your skin feeling soft for hours, not just a few minutes. It has a warm, gourmand scent that leans into the sweetness. It’s comforting and pairs beautifully with other vanilla-based fragrances. It leaves a very noticeable "glaze" on the skin. It isn't just a shimmer; it’s a high-shine glow that makes skin look incredibly healthy and hydrated.

Vaseline Glazed

Absolutely love this body oil! It leaves my skin with a beautiful golden glow without feeling greasy. The texture is lightweight, absorbs quickly, and keeps my skin hydrated and soft. The vanilla and cocoa scent is warm and long-lasting. Perfect for adding a subtle shimmer and a radiant finish to any look. Highly recommend!

Nice product but doesn’t look good on everyone I guess.
Size: 6.8 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I’m kinda in denial trying to convince myself I don’t look greasy, but I do. Bought it because of the Youtube ad, I guess it just looks better and softer in darker skin. I look oily, not glowy. You will stick it EVERYWHERE, from your friend’s car to a random wall whenever you go. It’s oily but not sticky. Smells nice and has a lovely glitter to it that I am invested in convincing myself I look good with. Maybe my skin doesn’t contribute to the cause, but I’ll use it every time I go out because I am the most stubborn woman in the world and I am just CONVINCED I can look as smooth and beautiful as the girl in the ad. Someday I’ll tan, who knows.

Glowy skin hydration
Size: 6.8 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Golden goddess results unlocked !!!! If you’re not tan it adds a nice glow. But if you’re tan ( fake or not) this product will make your skin look hydrated, glowy, bronzed and highlighted. I’m on the older side so I have some crepey skin on my inner arms, this makes it look 100 times better. I also only self tan, I find this helps my “tan” last longer. Has a nice tropical scent that gradually fades.
