Among contemporary Russian writers, Yuz Aleshkovsky stands out for his vivid imagination, his mixing of realism and fantasy, and his virtuosic use of the rich tradition of Russian obscene language. These two novels, written in the 1970s, display Aleshkovsky's linguistic gifts and keen observations of Soviet life. Nikolai Nikolaevich begins when its titular hero, a pickpocket by trade, is released from prison after World War II and finds a job in a Moscow biological laboratory. Starting out as a kind of janitor, he is soon recruited to provide sperm for strange experiments intended to create life in the Andromeda galaxy. The hero finds himself at the center of the 1948 purge of biological science in the Soviet Union, in a transgressive tale that joins science fiction (and science fact) with gulag slang and a love story. The protagonist and narrator of Camouflage is an alcoholic who claims that he and his gang of friends are just one part of a vast camouflaging operation organized by the Party to hide the Soviet Union's underground military-industrial complex from the CIA's spy satellites. As they pass their time on the streets and share their alcohol-inspired fantasies, they see the stark reality of the Cold War in Russia in the late seventies. Nikolai Nikolaevich and Camouflage introduces English-speaking readers to a master of the comic first-person narrative.Binding Type: Paperback

Lightweight bur actually hydrating
Style: 3.38 Fl Oz (Non SPF), Style: 3.38 Fl Oz (Non SPF)
I’ve tried so many moisturizers that either felt greasy, heavy, or just sat on top of my skin, but this La Roche-Posay moisturizer honestly surprised me. It’s super lightweight, absorbs quickly, and leaves my skin feeling soft and hydrated without feeling oily. My face feels smooth and refreshed after using it instead of sticky or coated. It layers really well and doesn’t make my skin feel overloaded. Definitely one of the best moisturizers I’ve used so far.

Amazing moisturizer for all skin types!
Size: 19 Ounce (Pack of 1)
I absolutely love this CeraVe Moisturizing Cream! It keeps my skin soft, smooth, and well-hydrated all day long. I use it on both my face and body, and it doesn’t feel greasy at all. It’s very gentle and perfect even for sensitive skin. I also like that it has no strong scent. A little goes a long way, and the size is great for the price. I highly recommend this product to anyone looking for a reliable daily moisturizer!

So Far, Really Good for Dry and Sensitive Skin
Size: 8 Ounce, Size: 8 Ounce
I’ve only been using this moisturizer for about 2 weeks, but so far I really like it. It keeps my skin feeling hydrated throughout the day without feeling greasy or heavy. The texture is smooth, absorbs nicely, and doesn’t irritate my skin at all.
I also noticed my skin feels softer and less dry since I started using it. It’s simple, gentle, and works well for everyday use, especially if you have sensitive skin. So far I haven’t experienced any breakouts or strong fragrance issues, which I appreciate.
Too early to say long-term results, but my first impression has been very positive and I would buy it again.

Switched from luxury brands and never looked back!
Size: 19 Ounce (Pack of 1)
I used to spend way too much on high end body moisturizers thinking the price meant better results. Tried CeraVe on a whim and realized I was paying for packaging and fragrance this whole time. This does more for my skin than anything I used before.
I use it daily all over my body after showering and my skin stays soft the entire day. No irritation ever. The formula is so gentle that I forget I'm even wearing anything. No fragrance, no stinging, no breakouts. Just clean hydration. If you have sensitive skin and you're nervous about trying something new, this is about as safe as it gets.
The 19 oz tub lasts a long time even with daily full body use. Ceramides and hyaluronic acid at this price point is honestly ridiculous value. Save your money on the luxury stuff and just get this.
