"Lyrical and haunting...With this novel, Dunmore should rank high among writers like Kipling who explore war, its aftermath, and its lies."--Washington Independent Review of Books

"A poignant reminder that throughout history, the battle is far from over after a soldier returns home....As this impeccable and finely wrought literary tale winds to a chilling conclusion, readers will themselves be haunted by its evocative portrayal of a life-defining friendship and loss."--Bookpage

Published during the centenary of World War One to astonishing reviews and selected as a Richard and Judy Summer 2014 Book Club Pick in the UK, The Lie is a spellbinding tale of love, remembrance, and deception, set before, during and immediately after World War I, from Orange Prize-winning author, Helen Dunmore.

Daniel Branwell has survived the First World War and returned to the small Cornwall fishing town where he was born. As he struggles to make a living in the aftermath of war, Daniel is drawn deeper and deeper into the traumas of the past and memories of his dearest friend and his first love. Set in France during the First World War and in postwar England, The Lie is a deeply moving and mesmerizing story from one of our most preeminent storytellers.

"Devastating and triumphant...wholly satisfying. Endings are often the hardest beast for an author to tame, but Dunmore does it, with elegance, vigor and clarity."--The Denver Post

"Heartbreaking."--Kirkus Reviews

" A]moving and complex novel...Dunmore does a superb job of capturing her lead's inner torment, even as his story creeps toward a shattering conclusion."--Publishers Weekly (starred, boxed review)

Great
Size: 3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Style: SPF 50
The sunscreen itself is really good. It applies smoothly just as advertised “lotion”. I was pleased to see it didn’t leave a white cast. I apply makeup over my sunscreen often. This sunscreen worked perfectly with makeup. Like it said, it’s unscented and that was true as I didn’t detect a scent. My skin feels nice with this on. My only issue is that it didn’t come with a safety seal under the cap. Usually all products come with a seal to ensure it isn’t tampered with and that buyer gets the full amount of product. That was a bit upsetting but hopefully I didn’t actually get a used one.

I LOVE this sunscreen!! Super affordable and lightweight for your skin!
Size: 6 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Style: SPF 50
I love this sunscreen!! Love it so much I bought 3 bottles of it! Super lightweight and blends right into the skin, and I don’t feel not sticky! I got super excited and got this primarily because it’s lightweight, super affordable, SPF 50 for high protection, and it said there’s no alcohol or fragrance…heres the catch tho, there IS a slight sunscreen smell, but you only notice it when applying it and if you keeping smelling it on yourself up close during the day. Other than that, it’s truly fragrance free in the sense that you aren’t just standing there doing your thing, and keep getting HIT with the scent of sunscreen for hours, like other sunscreens! The scent is extremely light and pleasant when you go to smell it on yourself. Don’t EVER discontinue this please please please!!!!

It’s great! So light weight!
Size: 3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Style: SPF 50
I have been testing this out for a month now. I love it. This does have avobenzone in it, and because of that, I do NOT put it around my eyes as avobenzone is a chemical sunscreen ingredient that typically tends to cause the of sensation of burning eyes! At least for me it does. I use an Australian sunscreen around my eyes that doesn’t have anything that irritates my eyes. So for the rest of my face, this stuff is great. It literally is so serum like sinks into your skin within five minutes or sooner. Now it’s not the most hydrating thing in the world so if you have a dry skin, you still wanna go in with a moisturizer before however, if you have oily skin, this is your girl right here. Skin like finish, not super matte and not dewy at all. I do not wear primer so I don’t know how it plays with that. Works great under my makeup and has never caused pilling. Quick, easy, simple ingredients, definitely sensitive skin friendly, and no fragrance at an affordable cost-effective price! Now if only banana boat decided to go cruelty free😭 9/10 bc not CF 💔

Great sensitive skin sunscreen
Size: 3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Style: SPF 50
Love this! I have sensitive skin. this did not sting my eyes, or burn my cheeks. Left no white cast. I'm not noticing any scent. It just feels like bare skin, it's not heavy, drying, oily or sticky. No pilling. Went on smooth, not streaky, looks like skin once dried down, not patchy. I hope they keep this in stock forever!
