One evening, journalist Eric Siblin attended a recital of Johann Sebastian Bach's Cello Suites and began an epic quest that would unravel three centuries of intrigue, politics, and passion. Winner of the Mavis Gallant Prize for Nonfiction and the McAuslan First Book Prize, The Cello Suites weaves together three dramatic narratives: the disappearance of Bach's manuscript in the eighteenth century; Pablo Casals's discovery and popularization of the music in Spain in the late-nineteenth century; and Siblin's infatuation with the suites in the present day. The search led Siblin to Barcelona, where Casals, just thirteen and in possession of his first cello, roamed the backstreets with his father in search of sheet music and found Bach's lost suites tucked in a dark corner of a store. Casals played them every day for twelve years before finally performing them in public. Siblin pursues the mysteries that continue to haunt this music more than 250 years after its composer's death: Why did Bach compose the suites for the cello, then considered a lowly instrument? What happened to the original manuscript? A seamless blend of biography and music history, The Cello Suites is a true-life journey of discovery, fueled by the power of these musical masterpieces.Binding Type: Paperback

Very good for the skin
This sebum and honey balm is a jewel. It absorbs very quickly, leaves no greasy feeling and hydration lasts all day. I use it on my face and body. As it is 100% grass-fed, you can see the quality. Goodbye dry and tight skin. The 120g bottle yields a lot. I'm going to replace it

Made in China
I'm sorry but I would have never bought this item if I knew it was manufactured in China. They don't have the quality control we have in the U.S. and that's extremely important to me when using body products and taking supplements.

Elsie approved, no bull, bee sweet.
Smooth as warm butter, not at all greasy, absorbs faster than a sprinting calf, easy on one’s hide, no barnyard smell- more like a field of clover, leaves the skin udderly refreshed and glowing. It’s a honey of a deal and worth it. Silly comments, but all true in this gals opinion and that’s no bull.

Great product!
Style: Deep Moisturizing, Size: 1.76 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I love this stuff! My mom introduced this to me while I was visiting her, and within 3 days of using it I knew I needed to order one for myself. It has no smell, goes on buttery soft, and soaks in well. It is not heavy at all. At night I layer it on thicker and during the day I put a very thin layer on under my makeup. My skin is so much softer and hydrated. I have had small bumps on my cheeks for so long and they were gone within 3 days. My skin looks dewy and soft.
I read reviews of other brands that smelled, were oily, or too heavy. This is none of those things and it is a great price!
