FINALIST FOR THE PULITZER PRIZE - NATIONAL BESTSELLER - A bewitching story collection from a writer hailed as "the most darkly playful voice in American fiction" (Michael Chabon) and "a national treasure" (Neil Gaiman). NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BYBookPage - BuzzFeed - Chicago Tribune - Kirkus Reviews - NPR - San Francisco Chronicle - Slate - Time - Toronto Star - The Washington Post She has been hailed by Michael Chabon as "the most darkly playful voice in American fiction" and by Neil Gaiman as "a national treasure." Now Kelly Link's eagerly awaited new collection--her first for adult readers in a decade--proves indelibly that this bewitchingly original writer is among the finest we have.
Link has won an ardent following for her ability, with each new short story, to take readers deeply into an unforgettable, brilliantly constructed fictional universe. The nine exquisite examples in this collection show her in full command of her formidable powers. In "The Summer People," a young girl in rural North Carolina serves as uneasy caretaker to the mysterious, never-quite-glimpsed visitors who inhabit the cottage behind her house. In "I Can See Right Through You," a middle-aged movie star makes a disturbing trip to the Florida swamp where his former on- and off-screen love interest is shooting a ghost-hunting reality show. In "The New Boyfriend," a suburban slumber party takes an unusual turn, and a teenage friendship is tested, when the spoiled birthday girl opens her big present: a life-size animated doll. Hurricanes, astronauts, evil twins, bootleggers, Ouija boards, iguanas, The Wizard of Oz, superheroes, the Pyramids . . . These are just some of the talismans of an imagination as capacious and as full of wonder as that of any writer today. But as fantastical as these stories can be, they are always grounded by sly humor and an innate generosity of feeling for the frailty--and the hidden strengths--of human beings. In Get in Trouble, this one-of-a-kind talent expands the boundaries of what short fiction can do. Praise for Get in Trouble "Ridiculously brilliant . . . These stories make you laugh while staring into the void."--The Boston Globe "When it comes to literary magic, Link is the real deal: clever, surprising, affecting, fluid and funny."--San Francisco Chronicle

I like it a lot
Color: Rose gold, Color: Rose gold
Very nice watch. I've had it one day and already received compliments. The color is reserved yet striking. I found it easy to adjust the size.

Nice Patek Phillip replica!
Color: Rose gold, Color: Rose gold
Nice watch! Doesn't look cheap. Casual and office wear, both ok. Removing links was easy. Decent size, good on my wrist. These days smaller watches are in trend and it does fit the requirement. Color is fancy. In low light conditions it does get darker hues and it looks even better to me.

Packaging is most disappointing
Color: Black
Giving a 3-star at the moment because I just received the watch and usually comment on a new collection addition after about a week.
•biggest turn off and cause for 3 star upon receipt is because of packaging. The main box seemed already used and returned or carelessly handled & very basic. How it's advertised & described as well as the image seller portrays of the product, the packaging fails at "luxury" depiction.
•Link removal tool is very basic but this was a $23.00 watch. Because I am a collector I knew to pay attention to how pins are removed and had no problems removing the 4 links required to meet my desired size.
•A few reviews said it's heavy and I'm used to pretty heavy + 44-48mm bezels so to my standards, I wouldn't 100% say it feels cheap(i mean c'mon it is so can't be too judgemental) but it slightly does feel "toyish"
•Bracelet out the package even with plastic all over, came with two dot sized blemishes i keep focusing on and upset at.
•Many reviews said after two hours, the time isn't accurate; thus far, time is fine
•A few reviews said the double clasp is weak. 1 time it did loose but after removing links, ive done a lot of shaking and wrist action to test the clasps and nothing so far to match others experience
•It has a nice appearance, can pass for business and casual
•For a $26.00 watch after taxes I'm not disappointed as of yet besides the blemishes and packaging but will revisit in a week or so.
•I read that the date doesn't keep accurately so I will update review after a trial period
• I will say, if you dress correctly with this piece, I feel it has potential to draw attention from it's design

All time favorite watch
This watch is amazing for the price. I have had mine for 5 years or so and I wear it regularly. It's very comfortable resin strap. The design of the face is I think stunningly beautiful. Yes that is a bit strong for a $25 watch but the way the globe pops out, the legibility on par with a high priced dive watch and the funcationality of a timer, stop watch, world time and a data bank you will never use, but still.. cool watch!
