Synopsis
In many cemeteries, particularly in Europe, one can find 19th-century sculptures of idealized images of women, elaborately posed and sculpted with great care and artistic flair. David Robinson's photographs capture the sensual beauty and mystery of these lifelike sculptures. In her foreword, Joyce Carol Oates explores the many implications of the grief-stricken, extremely provocative female figures - the obsession with mortality, the rituals of mourning, the conflation of death and the erotic, and the perfect female form as a male fantasy and a symbol of status.

    Communication was prompt and courteous; they even confirmed my preferred delivery date. The listing’s 12 high-resolution photos and precise grading (“Like New/Very Fine”) spared me the usual secondhand-book guessing game. Already eyeing their 19th-century poetry collection. A flawless ★★★★★ experience! This transaction wasn’t just about buying a book – it was a lesson in how eCommerce should operate. Their pricing, while fair

    Very pleased with this purchase! Happy to have the extra copies of the out-of-print, older versions of this grammar curriculum. The workbooks were a great value with FREE shipping, as well! Liberal use of packing tape to reinforce seams is recommended, as the box did arrive split open on one end due to the sheer heaviness of the books and the rough handling during shipment. Thankfully, no books were lost, and they arrived in nice, clean condition, as described. Seller is highly recommended!!

    Books were in great condition and best price out there! Took awhile to ship due to it being media mail and the tracking didn’t explain anything and had little updates as to where it was and why it wasn’t here , but seller got back to me right away when I emailed them about it. Not sure if it explained that in The description when I bought it, but if it doesn’t would be good to add. Only really care because I wanted it in time for Xmas. Would definitely buy from them again. Thank you!
