The masterpiece of Shirley Hazzard (1931-2016), The Transit of Venus won the National Book Critics' Circle Award and was a finalist for the National Book Award. The Transit of Venus is considered Shirley Hazzard's most brilliant novel. It tells the story of two orphan sisters, Caroline and Grace Bell, as they leave Australia to start a new life in post-war England. What happens to these young women--seduction and abandonment, marriage and widowhood, love and betrayal--becomes as moving and wonderful and yet as predestined as the transits of the planets themselves. Gorgeously written and intricately constructed, Hazzard's novel is a story of place: Sydney, London, New York, Stockholm; of time: from the fifties to the eighties; and above all, of women and men in their passage through the displacements and absurdities of modern life.Binding Type: Paperback

Stylish, Comfortable, and GQ-Approved
Size: 9, Color: Navy Ink/Woodbury, Size: 9, Color: Navy Ink/Woodbury
I bought these Cole Haan Grandsport Journey Knit shoes for my husband, and he absolutely loves them. They’re stylish and really complete his outfits — very GQ vibes. He says they’re extremely comfortable on his feet and easy to wear all day. Great look, great fit, and definitely worth it. Highly recommend!

Extremely comfortable
Size: 10.5, Color: Navy Ink/Woodbury
As a manager for a very large corporate office campus, I do a LOT of walking. These shoes are a life saver. They look good, are comfortable, and so far, very durable. There are a lot of tile floors on this campus and when the shoes were new, they were a bit squeaky due to the soles adhering to the floors. Now they are as quiet as can be. I like them so much I asked for a pair in brown for Christmas - also awesome!

Stylish, comfortable, and a great price.
Size: 11, Color: Dark/Blue, Size: 11, Color: Dark/Blue
Can't beat the quality at this price. This is my 2nd pair, my last pair (in brown) lasting almost 3 years as a work shoe in a dusty warehouse. Nice and light. Fitment is true to size. Very good looking and comfortable shoe. I suggest insoles as the soles are a little thin and can be rough on a bad back. And they squeak on the floor after they age. But again, for the price you can't beat these shoes. Did, would, and will buy again.
