NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • A MOST ANTICIPATED BOOK• A newly sober, orphaned son of Iranian immigrants, guided by the voices of artists, poets, and kings, embarks on a remarkable search for a family secret that leads him to a terminally ill painter living out her final days in the Brooklyn Museum. Electrifying, funny, and wholly original, Martyr! heralds the arrival of an essential new voice in contemporary fiction.

“Kaveh Akbar is one of my favorite writers. Ever.” —Tommy Orange, Pulitzer Prize–nominated author of There There

“The best novel you'll ever read about the joy of language, addiction, displacement, martyrdom, belonging, homesickness.” —Lauren Groff, best-selling author of Matrix and Fates and Furies

Cyrus Shams is a young man grappling with an inheritance of violence and loss: his mother’s plane was shot down over the skies of the Persian Gulf in a senseless accident; and his father’s life in America was circumscribed by his work killing chickens at a factory farm in the Midwest. Cyrus is a drunk, an addict, and a poet, whose obsession with martyrs leads him to examine the mysteries of his past—toward an uncle who rode through Iranian battlefields dressed as the angel of death to inspire and comfort the dying, and toward his mother, through a painting discovered in a Brooklyn art gallery that suggests she may not have been who or what she seemed.

Kaveh Akbar’s Martyr! is a paean to how we spend our lives seeking meaning—in faith, art, ourselves, others.

I bought this cream for my baby because my skin was very dry and irritated, and I really liked it. From the first days I noticed that the skin was more hydrated and less reddened. I like that it has no fragrance, which is ideal for babies with sensitive skin. The texture is soft, absorbs well and does not leave the skin greasy. In addition, it yields a lot because with a small amount it is enough. I definitely recommend it for babies with dry skin or prone to eczema. It has worked very well for me and I would buy it again.

Great product for babies!
Size: 8 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Great product. Switched from Aveeno Ezcema cream to Eucerin and I have no regrets. The cream helped reduce my little ones flare ups and it doesn’t leave a greasy feeling afterwards. I use it all over his body. He’s 51/2 months now and his skin is smooth and barely any redness or inflammation.

HOLY GRAIL for baby’s eczema!!!
Size: 8 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
The ONLY lotion that helps our baby’s eczema prone skin!!! It not only prevents flair ups, but it calms & soothes his skin when flair ups do happen. It’s not greasy, it rubs in pretty well with some effort, it’s thick & has no smell which is great for sensitive skin. Lotion is just expensive regardless of what kind you get, but we feel like this splurge is worth it for our guys skin.

Effective!
Size: 8 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
This works wonders for our baby’s eczema! He had several rough patches on his arms, legs and cheeks and so far everything has cleared up except his arms, they will occasionally flare up but the cream helps soothe and reduce redness within a couple hours. It’s also a nice hand lotion for me, lol

Works well! Cream is on the lighter side and easy to apply. Love the tube design makes it easy to use and keeps the cream clean. Fragrance free and will last a long time. Great product!
