Named one of the 10 Best Books of the Decade by Entertainment Weekly - Finalist for the PEN/Faulkner Award, National Book Critics Circle Award, and Los Angeles Times Book Prize
A "towering, swash-buckling thrill of a book" (Newsweek), hailed as Chabon's "magnum opus" (The New York Review of Books), The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier & Clay is a triumph of originality, imagination, and storytelling, an exuberant, irresistible novel that begins in New York City in 1939. A young escape artist and budding magician named Joe Kavalier arrives on the doorstep of his cousin, Sammy Clay. While the long shadow of Hitler falls across Europe, America is happily in thrall to the Golden Age of comic books, and in a distant corner of Brooklyn, Sammy is looking for a way to cash in on the craze. He finds the ideal partner in the aloof, artistically gifted Joe, and together they embark on an adventure that takes them deep into the heart of Manhattan, and the heart of old-fashioned American ambition. From the shared fears, dreams, and desires of two teenage boys, they spin comic book tales of the heroic, fascist-fighting Escapist and the beautiful, mysterious Luna Moth, otherworldly mistress of the night. Climbing from the streets of Brooklyn to the top of the Empire State Building, Joe and Sammy carve out lives, and careers, as vivid as cyan and magenta ink. Spanning continents and eras, this superb book by one of America's finest writers remains one of the defining novels of our modern American age. Winner of the Bay Area Book Reviewers Award and the New York Society Library Book Award

Fantastic mattress cover!
Color: 4 Black, Size: Twin XL, Color: 4 Black, Size: Twin XL
My son's bed needed a new mattress cover. The old one was a synthetic material that held stains, had snags and runs and didn't last long.
So, I went hunting and found this one. I liked that it was quilted as well as waterproof, nice looking. I purchased one for my son's bed, black. Wow, these are really nice. They fit great and are so much more attractive, completely elevates the bed.
They make a bit of noise when being put on the bed but are completely silent when laying on the bed. No more crinkle sound!
I was so impressed I purchased one for my bed too! Never going back to the old covers. These will not disappoint.

Great purchase!
Color: 1 Gray, Size: California King
I am really happy with this mattress protector! It fit my mattress perfectly and was easy to put on without constantly slipping around. The material feels soft and comfortable, not stiff or plasticky like some waterproof protectors. I also like that it doesn’t make any crinkling noises when moving around in bed. It gives me peace of mind knowing my mattress is protected while still feeling breathable and comfortable to sleep on. Overall, great quality for the price and I would definitely buy it again.
