Winner of the PEN/Malamud Award for Short StoryA New York Times Notable Book In these "vivid, entertaining, philosophical dispatches" (San Francisco Chronicle), literary legend Le Guin weaves together influences as wide-reaching as Borges, The Little Prince, and Gulliver's Travels to examine feminism, tyranny, mortality and immortality, art, and the meaning--and mystery--of being human. Sita Dulip has missed her flight out of Chicago. But instead of listening to garbled announcements in the airport, she's found a method of bypassing the crowds at the desks, the nasty lunch, the whimpering children and punitive parents, and the blue plastic chairs bolted to the floor: she changes planes. Changing planes--not airplanes, of course, but entire planes of existence--enables Sita to visit societies not found on Earth. As "Sita Dulip's Method" spreads, the narrator and her acquaintances encounter cultures where the babble of children fades over time into the silence of adults; where whole towns exist solely for holiday shopping; where personalities are ruled by rage; where genetic experiments produce less than desirable results. With "the eye of an anthropologist and the humor of a satirist" (USA Today), Le Guin takes readers on a truly universal tour, showing through the foreign and alien indelible truths about our own human society.

Great Long-Lasting Replacement Heads for BURST Toothbrush
Color: Rose Gold, Color: Rose Gold
I really like these replacement toothbrush heads for my BURST electric toothbrush. They seem to last a very long time compared to many other toothbrush heads I have tried. The bristles hold up really well and do not get worn down or frayed quickly, even with regular use. While I still try to replace my toothbrush heads routinely for hygiene purposes, I honestly feel like these could easily last for several months if needed.
The replacement heads attach perfectly to the toothbrush and feel very secure once connected. I also appreciated that they offer them in pink because it matches my toothbrush perfectly and adds a fun touch. The price also feels pretty reasonable for a three-pack considering the quality and durability of the heads themselves.
My only small complaint is that they are made of plastic, which I personally do not love from an environmental standpoint. I also am still undecided about the black bristles because it can make it harder to tell if the toothbrush is fully clean after use. Other than that, the product arrived exactly as described and pictured, and overall I think these are excellent replacement heads for anyone using a BURST toothbrush.
