The masterpiece of Shirley Hazzard (1931-2016), The Transit of Venus won the National Book Critics' Circle Award and was a finalist for the National Book Award. The Transit of Venus is considered Shirley Hazzard's most brilliant novel. It tells the story of two orphan sisters, Caroline and Grace Bell, as they leave Australia to start a new life in post-war England. What happens to these young women--seduction and abandonment, marriage and widowhood, love and betrayal--becomes as moving and wonderful and yet as predestined as the transits of the planets themselves. Gorgeously written and intricately constructed, Hazzard's novel is a story of place: Sydney, London, New York, Stockholm; of time: from the fifties to the eighties; and above all, of women and men in their passage through the displacements and absurdities of modern life.Binding Type: Paperback

Love the uniqueness of the Boot!
Size: 11, Color: Rich Cognac Multi
Sam Edelman never disappoints! I love the chucky heel and the multi-colors and textures. Can't wait to rock these with a leather skirt and turtleneck!

I'm very pleased with the purchase of this bag
Color: Pink
The bag is made of a very subtle pink, supple leather. It seems to be of good quality and I hope that over time, with wear, this turns out to be true. It's a good size -- not too small, not huge, but just enough to fit plenty of necessities for a day or evening out. The style is sleek and uncomplicated, making it versatile enough to be worn on casual days as well as a night out. The top is secured with a smooth-running zipper that keeps everything safe yet easily accessible. The shoulder strap is adjustable to various lengths including one that is very long which is my preference. The handles are wrapped in matching leather and very comfortable. The only improvements I'd make to the bag is the addition of brass feet on the bottom and I'd make the zipper pocket on the outside back of the bag slightly wider so my phone would fit into it. Overall, I like it very much and have already recommended it to family and friends.

Affordable quality!
Color: Sorrel
This bag is beautiful! Just bought it for my early September trip to Newport. Spot on for color early Fall. Soft and stylish. I opted to buy silk scarfs in various colors and they looked great. May start doing my own videos! Nice large quality zipper. Affordable. Great for travel due to it's neutral color. Great gift - neutral. I purchased the smaller size and it was very generous in size. Great for a day out - where you may need a few extras with you. But dressy enough for evening - especially with a silk scarf wrapped on the handle. Includes crossbody strap if you'd like that.
