A woman of snow . . . a midnight caller keeping his promise . . . forests where Nature is deliberate and malefic . . . enchanted houses . . . these are the beings and ideas that flood through this collection of ghost stories by Algernon Blackwood (1869-1951). Altogether thirteen stories, gathered from the entire corpus of Blackwood's work, are included: stories of such sheer power and imagination that it is easy to see why he has been considered the foremost British supernaturalist of the twentieth century.Blackwood's ability to create an atmosphere of unrelieved horror and sustain it to the end of the story is almost unsurpassed. The Willows -- which has been called by H. P. Lovecraft the finest supernatural story -- is a typical example of Blackwood's art: slowly and surely Blackwood draws the reader into a world of shadows, nuances, and unearthly terror.
Blackwood was also a master at evoking feelings of mysticism and cosmic experience; dealing with such ideas as interpenetrating levels of existence and pantheistic elemental powers, he expanded the content of supernatural literature enormously. But even the more traditional elements of horror stories such as ghosts and haunted houses are handled with such energy and feeling that they rise far above their predecessors.
Drawing on serious Oriental thought, modern psychology, and philosophy, Algernon Blackwood introduced a sophistication to the horror story that -- with few exceptions -- it was devoid of before. The results are stories that are not only guaranteed to chill, but stories that have something to say to the intelligent reader.

Nice
Size: 5.1 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Size: 5.1 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I will give this product, a four out of five because it is really good. It has a lock on it so that it won’t come out whenever you don’t need it to it smells like coconuts, which is nice and it is shiny but as you can see, unless you maybe have a light up to it you can’t see it that well, but it’s very soothing on the skin and it does darken it a little bit, which gives it that bronze gold look that I was looking for which made me really happy but I just wish it was a little darker and glittery but other than that overall it’s a good product and it does give you that shine that you need and it lasts all day

MY NEW FAV!!!!
Size: 5.1 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Palmer's Cocoa Butter Formula Shimmer Body Oil is hands down my new favorite! It leaves my skin feeling soft, hydrated, and with a beautiful shimmer that looks natural and radiant. The scent is amazing, and it absorbs quickly without feeling greasy. I’ve tried other body oils, but nothing compares to this one, don’t give me anything else! This is the best, and I’ll keep buying it again and again.

Moisturizes with simmer!
Size: 5.1 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Not a lot of shimmer, which is a good thing when putting it on, thought it was going to be overwhelming from the bottle, but not. Moisturizes all day. Smell is strong in the beginning but dissipates after a while.

I caught a vibe!
Size: 5.1 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Ok, so I love this oil. As a pool girlie I loved laying out and lathering this on. The smell is simply fantastic! The bottle actually caught thy eye of a few sparkle girlies too by the pool and wanted to know where I got it. For a second I felt cool so, it’s five stars for me for setting a vibe and being the cool girl at the pool, with the sparkle and the great smelling skin!
