Necessary LiesIt is 1960 in North Carolina and the lives of Ivy Hart and Jane Forrester couldn't be more different. Fifteen year old Ivy lives with her family as tenants on a small tobacco farm, but when her parents die, Ivy is left to care for her grandmother, older sister, and nephew.

It is 1960 in North Carolina and the lives of Ivy Hart and Jane Forrester couldn't be more different. Fifteen-year-old Ivy lives with her family as tenants on a small tobacco farm, but when her parents die, Ivy is left to care for her grandmother, older sister, and nephew. As she struggles with her grandmother's aging, her sister's mental illness, and her own epilepsy, she realizes they might need more than she can give.

When Jane Forrester takes a position as Grace County's newest social worker, she is given the task of recommending which of her clients should be sterilized without their knowledge or consent. The state's rationalization is that if her clients are poor, or ill, or deemed in some way unfit they should not be allowed to have children. But soon Jane becomes emotionally invested in her clients' lives, causing tension with her new husband and her supervisors. No one understands why Jane would want to become a caseworker for the Department of Public Health when she could be a housewife and Junior League member. As Jane is drawn in by the Hart women, she begins to discover the secrets of the small farm--secrets much darker than she would have guessed. Soon, she must decide whether to take drastic action to help them, or risk losing a life-changing battle.

Necessary Lies
is the story of these two young women, seemingly worlds apart, but both haunted by tragedy. Jane and Ivy are thrown together and must ask themselves: How can you know what you believe is right, when everyone is telling you it's wrong?

Good looking, sturdy & great value
Color: Gravel Black
This looks great on top of our Black Quartz sink (which is top mounted so fits well). Very sturdy and easy to clean. I recommend this.

The ceramic feel
Color: Gravel Black, Color: Gravel Black
This item has a sturdy feel to it. The texture and weight is giving a ceramic feel. This piece has an elegant matte finish, screams modern solids. The pump is a bit meh but works well. All together a very fine piece of decor. Recommend with high marks.

Simple, Durable, and Efficient
Color: Gravel Black
I needed a soap holder for my kitchen sink and I was looking for something modern and small. The Shinowa Soap Dispenser with Sponge seemed good. It's small but holds a lot of soap. The black color is nice. The pump dispenses soap well. It has a compartment for a sponge, as well, though I never used it. The bottom has rubber feet to stop it from sliding o — bigger or more grippy pads would make it more stable, though not everyone would have that much space on their sink. The pump works well and doesn’t need a lot of pressure. The wide opening makes it easy to fill and clean. One thing I didn't like personally — the holder doesn’t have a way to drain water. Sometimes I need to take out the water that collects in it. But it’s not a big problem. Overall, the Shinowa Dish Soap Dispenser is good. It keeps my kitchen tidy and makes it easier to use. It’s a good product that I would recommend to others.
