In this brilliantly witty satire -- a bestseller in the UK -- a prestigious British museum launches an ambitious new exhibit...which quickly becomes a seasonal nightmare.Think that a day in the life of a London museum director is cold, quiet, and austere? Think again. Giles Waterfield brings a combination of intellectual comedy and knockabout farce to the subject in this story of one long day in a museum full of scandals, screw-upsSand more than a few scalawags.
At the beginning of The Hound in the Left-hand Corner, Auberon, the brilliant but troubled director of the Museum of British History, is preparing one midsummer's day for the opening of the most spectacular exhibition his museum has ever staged. The centerpiece is a painting of the intriguing Lady St. John strikingly attired as Puck, which hasn't been shown in London in a hundred years. As the day passes, the portrait arouses disquieting questions, jealousies, rivalries -- and more than a few strange affections -- in the minds of the museum staff. As guests and employees pour in, the tension rises -- and Auberon himself has the hilariously ridiculous task of keeping the peace, without losing his own sense of reality as well.
For everyone who loves the farce of David Lodge and Michael Frayn, or even the Antiques Roadshow, the fast-paced, hilarious satire of The Hound in the Left-hand Corner is sure to delight and entertain.

Really pretty sparkle!
Size: 1PCS, Color: Gold
I actually bought this product (one can) so I could spray this on my small area of frog ornaments and rocks by our pool. *The product does not state it is intended for craft use. I am very okay with that. Being in Arizona with sun and wind, I wasn’t sure how this would work, turns out what little I did do, (I was afraid my bottle would run out), did a nice job! Half the glitter I sprayed survived a serious thunderstorm we had one night a week or two ago!
I did end up spraying some glitter on my arm, it’s really pretty, subtle, small size glitter, but definitely noticeable outside. You can make your layers as thin or thick as you like. The glitter comes out of the can like hairspray. Very faint smell that will go away within 5-10 minutes, depending on much you use.
I will definitely be purchasing more of this item in more colors in the future.

Must buy!!
Size: 1PCS, Color: Holo Silver, Size: 1PCS, Color: Holo Silver
After carefully looking at the reviews, I ended up purchasing the silver holographic body glitter spray. I immediately sprayed it on my arm, and it blasted my arm full of glitter! I wiped my arm and already dried down! I can’t wait to spray this in my hair and see how long this can last, but I’m definitely buying more with a different variety of colors. Definitely worth the money. I’m obsessed! I will say that if you don’t want glitter everywhere then spray outside.

Waste of money
Size: 1PCS, Color: Green
Barely noticeable! I bought the green glitter and let's just say there's Very little glitter! Pretty much non-existent. Definitely not worth $10 and It's not returnable. For $10 I would have expected something noticeable

Very pretty.....but it spreads.....a lot
Size: 1PCS, Color: Holo Silver
I put this on my cosplay wig, but I had to take it outside to apply. This gets EVERYWHERE. I'm still finding glitter months later. It is easy to apply and dries quickly initially, but it just spreads everywhere.

Great long lasting glitter.
Size: 1PCS, Color: Holo Silver
Wore this to a part and I was happy with how glittery and gorgeous the glitter was. Was easy to use, sprayer evenly and the quality is nice, lasted a good few hours after application. Functioned well on both clothes and skin and left minimal sticky residue. Great product.
