The Demon and the Angel: Searching for the Source of Artistic InspirationA work of art, whether a painting, a dance, a poem, or a jazz composition, can be admired in its own right. But how does the artist actually create his or her work? What is the source of an artist's inspiration? What is the force that impels the artist to set down a vision that becomes art?

A work of art, whether a painting, a dance, a poem, or a jazz composition, can be admired in its own right. But how does the artist actually create his or her work? What is the source of an artist's inspiration? What is the force that impels the artist to set down a vision that becomes art?In this groundbreaking book, Edward Hirsch explores the concept of duende, that mysterious, highly potent power of creativity that results in a work of art. With examples ranging from Federico Garc a Lorca's wrestling with darkness as he discovered the fountain of words within himself to Martha Graham's creation of her most emotional dances, from the canvases of Robert Motherwell to William Blake's celestial visions, Hirsch taps into the artistic imagination and explains, in terms illuminating and emotional, how different artists respond to the power and demonic energy of creative impulse.

Strong, long-lasting, and with a Gain lavender scent!
Size: 140 Count (Pack of 1), Size: 140 Count (Pack of 1)
I've tried a lot of trash bags, and these Glad ForceFlex Lavender Gain bags have really surprised me. The 13-gallon size is perfect for the kitchen, and the 140-count pack lasts a really long time, so I feel like it's worth it for the quantity. What I like most is that they're strong and don't tear easily when the trash is heavy. The ForceFlex technology really helps because the bag stretches a little instead of ripping. Plus, the Lavender Gain scent leaves a fresh smell and really helps control bad odors in the kitchen. So far, I haven't had any problems with spills or leaks, and that's super important to me. I would definitely buy them again.

High Quality Paper Towels That Actually Last
Package Size Name: Triple, Size: 141 Sheets (Pack of 16)
These are easily some of the best paper towels we’ve used. The cloth-like feel makes a noticeable difference right away. They’re soft but still very strong, and they hold up well even when wet without tearing apart.
Absorbency is excellent, so you don’t need to use multiple sheets to clean up a mess. One sheet usually gets the job done, which makes them more efficient than most standard options. They’re also thick enough to handle tougher cleaning without falling apart.
Overall, great quality and very reliable. The whole family uses them, and they’ve held up well for everything we need.

Feels super high quality
Package Size Name: Family Triple Roll, Size: 141 Sheets (Pack of 12)
Best paper towel ever - honestly they don’t feel like paper, they’re soft almost like an actual towel. These are the best for wiping my kids faces and hands because they’re soft and don’t fall apart. Also great for pets because I can scrub my carpet when my dog has an accident and the paper towel does not shred. 10/10 recommend these. They also don’t unravel and fling all over the place so I like to have a roll by my back door for the dogs paws, super convenient. The roll kind of sticks to itself so it stays tidy.

The best ever paper towels
Package Size Name: Family Triple Roll, Size: 141 Sheets (Pack of 12)
These are hands down the best paper towels I have ever used. If you haven’t tried them yet, you absolutely should. They truly feel more like a soft cloth than a paper towel, and the absorbency is incredible. They’re durable, super soft, and handle messes so well without falling apart. I am officially a buyer for life and won’t be going back to anything else!

These are the best paper towel ever!
Package Size Name: Family Triple Roll, Size: 141 Sheets (Pack of 12)
The reason I say these are the best paper towels is because they are more like a cloth than actual paper. If you're doing something larger like cleaning the kitchen sinks you can usually get by with just one. You can wet it down, ring it out and continue working. When it's time to dry, these soak up so much more liquid than any other towel... It's crazy! They are a bit on the expensive side, but you'll use so fewer towels that it makes up the difference.
