Winner of the PEN/Malamud Award for Short StoryA New York Times Notable Book In these "vivid, entertaining, philosophical dispatches" (San Francisco Chronicle), literary legend Le Guin weaves together influences as wide-reaching as Borges, The Little Prince, and Gulliver's Travels to examine feminism, tyranny, mortality and immortality, art, and the meaning--and mystery--of being human. Sita Dulip has missed her flight out of Chicago. But instead of listening to garbled announcements in the airport, she's found a method of bypassing the crowds at the desks, the nasty lunch, the whimpering children and punitive parents, and the blue plastic chairs bolted to the floor: she changes planes. Changing planes--not airplanes, of course, but entire planes of existence--enables Sita to visit societies not found on Earth. As "Sita Dulip's Method" spreads, the narrator and her acquaintances encounter cultures where the babble of children fades over time into the silence of adults; where whole towns exist solely for holiday shopping; where personalities are ruled by rage; where genetic experiments produce less than desirable results. With "the eye of an anthropologist and the humor of a satirist" (USA Today), Le Guin takes readers on a truly universal tour, showing through the foreign and alien indelible truths about our own human society.

Gorgeous summer glow anytime
Color: Glistening Bronze #03, Size: 1 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
The body shimmer is like being kissed by warm summer breeze a glow of star dust. It lights not sticky or tacky. It gloriously luxurious but simple way to step a look.

Cute, Smells like Chemicals
Color: Rose Gold #01, Size: 1 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Color: Rose Gold #01, Size: 1 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Looks great but transfers easily. I liked the shade and how the glitter was visible but not distracting. I wasn’t fond of how it smelled but I covered the scent with my sunscreen and I didn’t notice afterwards. Smells like a chemical like scent but it was worth the value I paid for. Good as a highlighter, to add a touch of glow to the face. You can’t see it under foundation but it’s cute on the cheek bones to give a make up less look on a sunny day. The brush is also good quality.

Quick glow up
Color: Glistening Bronze #03, Size: 1 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
This is a great bronzing shimmer for a little added glow before walking out the door! It's very lightweight and goes on very smooth with brush. I ended up buying and using a larger kabuki brush to brush on faster but the brush it comes with works ok as well. It's the perfect amount of bronze and shimmer.. not glittery or over the top and doesn't have a smell. Doesn't transfer on clothes but I always let it dry a few minutes before putting on clothes.

Beautiful Shimmer
Color: Rose Gold #01, Size: 1 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
This worked well for a wedding. I thought it would be a little more bronzier but I loved the sparkle. It is my first time using a body shimmer though, so it did what I bought it for and next time just need to self tan prior!
