"An absorbing novel . . . reminds us of the complexity of the web woven by those threads of faith, nationality, politics and history."--New York Times Book Review "Aboulela has written a book for grown-ups... that speaks more forcefully than a thousand opinion pieces...she has done more than breathe life into legend." --San Francisco Chronicle From the first ever winner of the Caine Prize for African Writing, Leila Aboulela, The Kindness of Enemies is a powerful historical journey across time and continents and a riveting epic of love, betrayal, and war. It's 2010 and Natasha, a half-Russian, half-Sudanese professor of history, is researching the life of Imam Shamil, the nineteenth century Muslim leader who led the anti-Russian resistance in the Caucasian War. When Natasha discovers her star student, Osama (Oz), is not only descended from the warrior but also possesses Shamil's legendary sword, the Imam's story comes vividly to life. But when Oz is suddenly arrested at his home one morning, Natasha realizes that everything she values stands in jeopardy. Told with Aboulela's inimitable elegance, The Kindness of Enemies is both an engrossing story of a provocative period in history and an important examination of what it is to be a Muslim in a post-9/11 world. "A rich, multilayered story, a whole syllabus of compelling topics. As a novelist, Aboulela moves confidently between dramatizing urgent, contemporary issues and providing her audience with sufficient background to follow these discussions about the changing meaning of jihad, the history of Sufism and the racial politics of the war on terror."--Washington Post "Riveting . . . this novel] hums in hushed and meditative tones through prisoners of war in historic and contemporary fantasy rooted in reality."--Los Angeles TimesBinding Type: Paperback

Works well and easy to add to a daily routine
Size: 2.3 Pound (Pack of 1), Style: Sugar Free 180 count
This Metamucil works well overall. It mixes pretty easily, the orange flavor is decent, and it’s been a simple way to add more fiber into my daily routine.
I like that it’s sugar-free and uses psyllium husk, so it feels like a practical option for digestive health without adding extra sugar. The texture is what you’d expect from a fiber powder, so you do need to drink it fairly quickly after mixing.
Overall, it does what I bought it for. Taking off one star only because it’s still a fiber drink, so the taste and texture may not be for everyone, but it’s a solid product.

Works well
Size: 2.3 Pound (Pack of 1), Style: Sugar Free 180 count
My doctor encouraged my use of this product to lower my cholesterol. Okay, months later, no difference with cholesterol, but the produce makes elimination very very clean and I like that, so I still use this product.

Helps me a lot
Size: 2.3 Pound (Pack of 1), Style: Sugar Free 180 count
Psyllium husk is a very necessary supplement and increases my daily fiber intake. It helps me use the bathroom consistently as it makes my bowel movements more regular. The taste of this is similar to orange juice and does not have a lot of sugar. I like putting this in my water every day. It is very easy to use and just dissolves in liquid. This large container will last me for over a month so it’s a great value for the money.

“My Everyday Essential: Nourishment for Skin, Health & Wellness”
Size: 32 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I’ve been using Viva Naturals pure coconut oil every day, and it has truly transformed my routine. I love all things natural, and I use this oil in so many ways that it has become indispensable. I take three baths a day and then rub it all over my body; my skin has never felt so soft and hydrated.
In the mornings, I take a big tablespoon on an empty stomach, and sometimes I mix it into my smoothies with flaxseed and almond milk. I feel lighter, more energetic, and I know I’m taking care of my health from the inside out. For me, there’s nothing like pure coconut oil: it’s versatile, natural, and truly wonderful. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a healthy product for their skin and daily wellness.H
