Yeong-hye and her husband are ordinary people. He is an office worker with moderate ambitions and mild manners; she is an uninspired but dutiful wife. The acceptable flatline of their marriage is interrupted when Yeong-hye, seeking a more 'plant-like' existence, decides to become a vegetarian, prompted by grotesque recurring nightmares. In South Korea, where vegetarianism is almost unheard-of and societal mores are strictly obeyed, Yeong-hye's decision is a shocking act of subversion. Her passive rebellion manifests in ever more bizarre and frightening forms, leading her bland husband to self-justified acts of sexual sadism. His cruelties drive her towards attempted suicide and hospitalisation. She unknowingly captivates her sister's husband, a video artist. She becomes the focus of his increasingly erotic and unhinged artworks, while spiralling further and further into her fantasies of abandoning her fleshly prison and becoming - impossibly, ecstatically - a tree.

Fraught, disturbing and beautiful,
The Vegetarian is a novel about modern day South Korea, but also a novel about shame, desire and our faltering attempts to understand others, from one imprisoned body to another.

Very good, comfortable, breathable, and easy to maintain
Size: One Size, Color: Black, Size: One Size, Color: Black
I really like this visor and use it often for workouts and outdoor activities. It’s easy to wash and doesn’t lose its fit like Velcro visors that stop sticking after a few washes. The material is lightweight and breathable, making it great for running, pickleball, or golf without trapping heat. The one-size-fits-all stretch fits comfortably and stays in place without feeling tight. It’s comfortable enough to wear for long periods and doesn’t cause pressure. Plus, the clean and stylish design makes it look good both during workouts and casually. Pros Easily washable (no Velcro to wear out) Breathable and lightweight for sports One-size-fits-all with a comfortable stretch Secure fit that doesn’t slip Looks stylish Cons Doesn’t have a very solid shape if you prefer a stiffer visor

A great running visor hat shades the face and keeps sweat out of your eyes.
Size: One Size, Color: Orange
I usually run in really hot and humid conditions and generate a lot of sweat, so wearing a visor allows the body heat to escape through my head and also acts as a sweat band. I needed replacements and decided to give these a try. They were beyond my expectations. The visor design is very light, thin fabric but the bill is very rigid. You can't adjust its fit and it was very tight when I first put it on. However, after an hour of running, it was very comfortable. It has a full sized bill and provided full shade coverage for my face and had no problems with sweat in my eyes. The visor construction was such that it held sweat really well. The design also caused the sweat to travel down the bill and drip off of its edge instead of down onto my face. I only wrung it out a couple times during a very sweaty runs to get the sweat out of the band. I love these visors, they are a great value for their quality, and have already bought a couple more.

Blue Color is off from photos.
Size: One Size, Color: Blue
The visor is lightweight and feels comfortable however I bought this for the color of blue which was a shade off from the photos. I was expecting more of a royal or blue with a purplish hue. This doesn’t match the blue color I was going for. The visor is great otherwise.

Perfect for beach life
Size: One Size, Color: Light Purple
I got this visor about a week ago and love it. I’ve worn it to Busch Gardens (not on the rides of course), paddle boarding and to the beach. It’s soft and the elasticity is perfect, not too tight but does fine on a windy beach day. It’s sweat absorbing and dries quickly. I washed it in a bra bag in the machine and air dried it, no problems. I’ve already ordered another color!

LOVE these visors!
Size: One Size, Color: Navy Blue
I love these visors. They are the best that I have ever purchased. They are so comfortable and stay on your head without slipping and sliding while playing golf. I have three colors, and anticipate I'll be buying more colors soon!
