Description
The Book of MonelleWhen Marcel Schwob published The Book of Monelle in French in 1894, it immediately became the unofficial bible of the French Symbolist movement, admired by such contemporaries as St phane Mallarm , Alfred Jarry and Andr Gide. A carefully woven assemblage of legends, aphorisms, fairy tales and nihilistic philosophy, it remains a deeply enigmatic and haunting work more than a century later, a gathering of literary and personal ruins written in a style
When Marcel Schwob published The Book of Monelle in French in 1894, it immediately became the unofficial bible of the French Symbolist movement, admired by such contemporaries as St phane Mallarm , Alfred Jarry and Andr Gide. A carefully woven assemblage of legends, aphorisms, fairy tales and nihilistic philosophy, it remains a deeply enigmatic and haunting work more than a century later, a gathering of literary and personal ruins written in a style that evokes both the Brothers Grimm and Friedrich Nietzsche. The Book of Monelle was the result of Schwob's intense emotional suffering over the loss of his love, a "girl of the streets" named Louise, whom he had befriended in 1891 and who succumbed to tuberculosis two years later. Transforming her into the innocent prophet of destruction, Monelle, Schwob tells the stories of her various sisters: girls succumbing to disillusionment, caught between the misleading world of childlike fantasy and the bitter world of reality. This new translation reintroduces a true fin-de-si cle masterpiece into English.A secret influence on generations of writers, from Guillaume Apollinaire and Jorge Luis Borges to Roberto Bola o, Marcel Schwob (1867-1905) was as versed in the street slang of medieval thieves as he was in the poetry of Walt Whitman (whom he translated into French). Paul Val ry and Alfred Jarry both dedicated their first books to him, and he was the uncle of Surrealist photographer Claude Cahun.

White film left
Style: SPF 30, Size: 3 Ounce (Pack of 1)
I know that mineral sunscreen is the best. But this one will leave a white film on you. I have used other sunscreens that work without the white film.

You get Zink, but no “tropical” scent
Style: SPF 30, Size: 3 Ounce (Pack of 1)
Great product. I wanted a Zink based sunscreen for my face, but I was hoping it would still have the Sun Bum traditional “tropical” scent.
Sadly nope.
I’m mixing it with the traditional Sun Bum 30 so I can get my tropical feel while keeping my face safe from sun damage. Hopefully I don’t turn green :)

Worked great
Style: SPF 30, Size: 3 Ounce (Pack of 1)
My skin is very sensitive to the sun. My skin does not tan I sun burn quickly! I love this sunblock because according to the ingredients it's reef & sea animal friendly. I found this product didn't leave a very noticeable white cast on my skin. I was able to blend it with very little noticeable white cast. I didn't find it sticky or really rubbing off on my clothes or bathing suite. In respect to all the things I mention it was all at a very minimal notice. For me it didn't have a smell of any kind. I used this product on vacation in Mexico. I tried & stayed out of the sun as much as I could. I went on a Mayan ruin tour following a snorkeling excursion & did not get a sunburn! Usually for that long period of time in the sun I would have received a light sunburn using other sunblocks but instead I actually got a light tan! I did apply this product on my body & face. I have to say this is my 1st time using this brand & it worked super well for me. :) *Just FYI when I applied this product I didn't need to apply to much if you do its going to obviously leave a white cast. I only applied as needed through out the day. Also make sure you give it time to sit to soak into your skin before putting on your clothes. After all you do have to wait a few min after applying before going out in the sun. That's any sunblock directions.

Finally! A sunscreen that works and does not burn my eyes.
Style: SPF 30, Size: 3 Ounce (Pack of 1)
I am unable to use chemical or hybrid sunscreens on my face because they "melt" and destroy my eyes. Living in the south means daily sunscreen year-around is a must - having found this product is a godsend. Unscented, no chemicals to discolor my clothes, no titanium dioxide so no purple-white ghostly cast, easily rubs in. Simply perfect!!!

Effective Mineral Sun Protection
Style: SPF 30, Size: 3 Ounce (Pack of 1)
This mineral sunscreen does a great job at blocking the sun. It applies smoothly, although it does have a slightly pasty texture which is typical of mineral sunscreens. I love that it was on the thinner side for consistency which makes it easy to apply evenly. We used it extensively last summer and it kept us well protected. We'll definitely be using it again this summer!
