A masterful work of personal reportage, this volume is also a vibrant portrait of a mysterious people and an essential document of a disappearing culture. Fabled, feared, romanticized, and reviled, the Gypsies--or Roma--are among the least understood people on earth. Their culture remains largely obscure, but in Isabel Fonseca they have found an eloquent witness. In Bury Me Standing, alongside unforgettable portraits of individuals--the poet, the politician, the child prostitute--Fonseca offers sharp insights into the humor, language, wisdom, and taboos of the Roma. She traces their exodus out of India 1,000 years ago and their astonishing history of persecution: enslaved by the princes of medieval Romania; massacred by the Nazis; forcibly assimilated by the communist regimes; evicted from their settlements in Eastern Europe, and most recently, in Western Europe as well. Whether as handy scapegoats or figments of the romantic imagination, the Gypsies have always been with us--but never before have they been brought so vividly to life. Includes fifty black and white photos.Binding Type: Paperback

Works
Color: Mayday
A little does go a long way. It’s on the pricy side but it was worth it. It’s not something to be using all the time. But definitely a back up for whenever you do get sunburn

Really effective!
Color: Mayday
I was totally blown away by how effective this was on my recent burn, I wish I had taken pictures. So much so that I did a deep dive into the ingredients and formula (I'm a nerd). My takeaway is that this is a bargain for the quality of ingredients and the care of the formula. The product absorbs quickly, is non-greasy, and relatively moisturizing and most of all, really effective. I personally appreciate the lack of any real scent or fragrance. I'm a big fan!

Not the results I expected
Color: Mayday
I sooo wanted to love this product; however, the results were not as I expected. Especially at this price point. I have sensitive skin & actually broke out, so maybe I am allergic to one of the ingredients or applied the product too thickly.
I’ve experienced better results with Coola’s Radical Recovery Organic After Sun Lotion which is only $32 for 5oz, so it’s definitely more cost effective & delivered better results in my opinion.

Nothing Better
Excellent product! I have the old person dry crinkly skin for a few years. I've tried creams and Castor and coconut oils. They leave me and my clothes greasy yet doesn't stay on my skin. Where those other items failed, this Tallow Cream meets and exceeds. This goes on smooth and I look forward to the wonderful scent. I like using this cream. My hands and arms look and feel healthy. Better then it ever looked really. I'm not embarrassed by my skin now. My husband tried this on his face and beard. Very nice. He has his own jar of this Tallow cream now.
About the ADDED ingredients they put in the cream... it's all good things, proof is how well it works. I don't want to make any changes to it and I would. My husband tried on his face and beard. He has his own jar now. I look to reviews for product insights. I hope our reactions help.

Not real smooth
I like the scent and I like the way it makes my skin feel; I gave it a 3 because it is not whipped all the way. It has lumps all in it . Not blended well. So it goes on lumpy. I have to keep rubbing hard to blend in.
