A New York Times Notable Book A man tells a story to a woman sitting beside him on a plane, little suspecting what it reveals about his capacity for cruelty and contempt. A callow runaway girl is stranded in a strange city with another woman's fractiously needy children. An uncomprehending father helplessly lashes out at the daughter he both loves and resents. In these raw, startling, and incandescently lovely stories, the author of Veronica yields twelve indelible portraits of people struggling with the disparity between what they want and what they know. Because They Wanted To is further evidence that Gaitskill is one of the fiercest, funniest, and most subversively compassionate writers at work today.Binding Type: Paperback

Too big - who's head is this big?
I can't win with adult visors, so this went back. I don't understand how women's head can be so large and it doesn't make any sense to me that when I adjust this fully to smallest size, it still doesn't fit. I had to buy a kid's visor.

Perfect Lightweight Sun Visor for Active Days
Size: One Size, Color: Black/Silver Reflective/3
I’m so impressed with the adidas Superlite Sun Visor—it’s become my go-to for all my outdoor activities. The lightweight design makes it incredibly comfortable to wear for hours without feeling any pressure on my head. I love how the black with silver reflective detailing gives it a sleek, sporty look while also adding visibility in low light. The moisture-wicking fabric keeps sweat away, so I stay cool and dry even during intense workouts or long walks in the sun. The adjustable strap ensures a perfect fit every time, and it stays securely in place without slipping. It provides great sun protection for my face and eyes without making me feel overheated like a full cap sometimes can. Whether I’m playing tennis, golfing, running, or just out for a casual day, it performs beautifully. The quality is outstanding, and it holds up perfectly after many uses. This visor is stylish, functional, and a must-have for anyone who spends time outdoors.

Gorgeous charcoal color
Size: One Size, Color: Black/Silver Reflective/3
Lightweight and perfect for indoor or outdoor use: at the pool, beach, lake, gym, trail, yard work or watching outdoor sporting events.
Another plus: the band soaks up my sweat and keeps my eyes and contacts free of “runoff” while the size of the bill is just big enough to shade my face.
Also, it isn’t bulky, fitting perfectly under my bike helmet. This is a bonus that provides a smooth transition from bike trail to bike brewery! No more wasted time making myself look presentable.
When the humidity is high, this also functions as a bad hair banisher in any scenario. However, the feature I find most useful is the Velcro strap to make adjustments to your head and hairstyle. Yeah it can grab your hair if not careful but also I don’t need to adjust it like I did with another comparable brand. It’s a trade off I’m willing to make.
I already own one from years and years ago. Quality is still a good as it ever was.
I’m glad I ordered the charcoal with rose gold logo-the color combo is just what I was looking for to update my basic black one. The logo has a slight metallic sheen, definitely not matte but also not glitter city.
It’s perfectly priced for the quality, style and fit. Very happy with my purchase.
