"Samuel R. Delany is not only one of the most profound and courageous writers at work today, he is a writer of seemingly limitless range." -- Michael Cunningham, author of The Hours This Stonewall Book Award-winning novel traces the life and unrealized dreams of Arnold Hawley, a homosexual African-American poet. Albert's poetry ultimately meets with modest acclaim but only after decades of striving. Romance and friendship are likewise elusive, despite an impulsive marriage to a stranger. His outsider status -- black, gay, and a poet -- compounds his struggles to create art, to find a readership, and to lead a meaningful existence.Beautifully written in reverse chronological order, the story opens with Albert's lonely old age and ventures back in time to his arrival in New York City of the 1950s. A meditation on isolation and sexual repression, Dark Reflections also offers an acerbic look at the literary world and the frustrations intrinsic to artistic life. "One of the most honest books I've ever read about the martyrdom of the writer in the contemporary world. Samuel Delany, who had entertained readers for decades with his rich fantasies, now gives us the truth and nothing but the truth. At certain points I wanted to put this book down because it was so sad -- but I couldn't because I was so enjoyable by its spare beauty and its searing frankness." -- Edmund White, author of A Boy's Own Story "Among the most detailed, thoughtful, and heartbreaking portrayals of a writer's life." -- Los Angeles Review of Books

Worked like it was supposed to!
Scent: Coconut, Banana, Watermelon, Size: 0.15 Ounce (Pack of 1)
Each flavor has a great smell and flavor, goes on smooth and makes my lips soft! I trust this brand to have the SPF ro protect my lips. I bought this to use while in Puerto Rico 🇵🇷 for 10 days and didnt get burnt.
I gave it a 4 star rating because it gives me a funny aftertaste in my mouth. My husband didn't experience this so maybe its just me. Regardless, it did what it was supposed to do!

Good to use, but won't buy again

I didn't like the coconut taste and it made my lips a bit more dry. looks good when you put it on and great spf coverage though, but won't buy again.

My new-found favorite!
Scent: Pineapple, Size: 0.15 Ounce (Pack of 1)
I wear lip balm daily and reapply multiple times in a day. This is one of the first times trying this brand, but this is now one of my favorite lip balms!
I love the “flavor” of the pineapple as it’s not super synthetic or chemical tasting. And the texture of the balm when I put it on my lips is exceptional! It’s not sticky and glides on really nicely. It’s got a more silky texture than most lip balms but doesn’t give a glossy look like you’d expect like products that give the same feeling.
This will definitely be my go-to moving forward.
