Book of Clouds is a haunting, masterfully wrought debut novel about a young woman adrift in Berlin, where a string of fateful encounters leads to romance, violence, and revelation. Having escaped her overbearing family a continent away, Tatiana settles in Berlin and cultivates solitude while distancing herself from the city's past. Yet the phantoms of Berlin--seeping in through the floorboards of her apartment, lingering in the abandoned subterranea--are more alive to her than the people she passes on her daily walks. When she takes a job transcribing notes for the reclusive historian Doktor Weiss, her life in Berlin becomes more complex--and more perilous. Through Weiss, she meets Jonas, a meteorologist who, as a child in the GDR, took solace in the sky's constant shape-shifting, an antidote to his grim and unyielding reality. As their three paths intersect and merge, the contours of all their worlds change, culminating in an act of violence that will leave none of them untouched. Unfolding with the strange, charged logic of a dream, Book of Clouds is a profound portrait of a city forever in flux, and of the myths we cling to in order to give shape to our lives.Binding Type: Paperback

Follow all the instructions
Color: Black
I really really like this product. Just be sure to read the directions about the charging required before first use. The instructions were simple and easy to understand when using a large bottle of wine. Be sure to hold the bottle securely or in may want to turn as the cart plunger goes down

Very good opener with some cheap attachments
Color: Black
This is a very good wine opener. It's light weight, well made, and opens bottles with no issues. Best part about this one that sets it apart from the competition is the charging base. I've tried a couple different ones so far and they all require you to plug a cord directly into the unit to charge it. With this one, it charges as soon as you set it into the base so you don't forget. The con with this one however is that the foil cutter is stored in the base and doesn't snap onto the unit itself like my old one. It's a very small inconvenience but just worth noting. The wine stopper and aerator are kind of like plastic toys but i really don't use them anyways. For the price though, having a charging base is worth the switch. Overall, really like this opener.

The functionality, speed & value are superior!
I LOVE THIS PRODUCT! I enjoy my evening glass or 2 of wine, BUT I always had to ask hubby to open the bottle or even the box for me. Granted he has never complained, but well, lets just say, I always felt guilty for making him get out of his recliner.
This wine opener has exceeding my expectations! It' is so easy to use. Use the cutting tool to break the foil seal, (after many uses I need new blades) place the opener with the corkscrew on top of the bottle. Get a firm grip of the neck of the bottle, & push the down button. Then let it quietly, quickly & with so much ease remove the cork!
It is so easy to use! Just plug it into a charger overnight & then you are ready to open many bottles of your favorite wine!
The functionality, speed & value are superior! Get one for your vacation bag, your kitchen, bar, etc, order one for your girlfriends/boyfriends, mother, aunt etc. :) They will thank you for it!

Game Changer for Wine Lovers
Color: 8-in-1 Silver, Size: Rechargeable
Circle Joy Electric Wine Bottle Opener and I’m honestly really impressed.
Setup was super simple, and it works exactly as advertised—just place it on the bottle, press a button, and the cork comes out smoothly in seconds. No struggling, no broken corks, and no mess. It makes opening wine feel effortless and a lot more enjoyable.
I also love the sleek design—it looks modern and feels sturdy, not cheap. If you have the set with accessories, the extras like the foil cutter and pourer are a nice bonus and actually useful.
Overall, this is a great little gadget, especially if you open wine often or just want something convenient and easy to use. Definitely a solid buy or even a nice gift idea.
