National Bestseller - A Finalist for the Scotiabank Giller Prize - A Finalist for the Goldsmiths Prize - Long-listed for the International Dublin Literary Award - One of Time Magazine's Top 10 Fiction Books of the Year
A New York Times Book Review Notable Book - Named a Best Book of the Year by The Guardian, Southern Living, NOW Magazine, Commonweal, The Washington Independent Review of Books, the San Francisco Chronicle, The Globe and Mail, BOMB Magazine, and The National Post (Canada) The Stunning Second Novel of a Trilogy That Began with Outline, One of New York Times Book Review's 10 Best Books of the YearIn the wake of her family's collapse, a writer and her two young sons move to London. The process of this upheaval is the catalyst for a number of transitions--personal, moral, artistic, and practical--as she endeavors to construct a new reality for herself and her children. In the city, she is made to confront aspects of living that she has, until now, avoided, and to consider questions of vulnerability and power, death and renewal, in what becomes her struggle to reattach herself to, and believe in, life. Filtered through the impersonal gaze of its keenly intelligent protagonist, Transit sees Rachel Cusk delve deeper into the themes first raised in her critically acclaimed novel Outline and offers up a penetrating and moving reflection on childhood and fate, the value of suffering, the moral problems of personal responsibility, and the mystery of change. In this second book of a precise and short yet epic cycle, Cusk describes the most elemental experiences, the liminal qualities of life. She captures with unsettling restraint and honesty the longing to both inhabit and flee one's life, and the wrenching ambivalence animating our desire to feel real.

Nice room divider
Color: Colorful Landscape, Size: 6 Panel, Color: Colorful Landscape, Size: 6 Panel
I am pleased with this room divider. I was concerned that the art design might look blurry or cheap in person compared to online, but it doesn't. It looks really nice. In fact, I like it so much that I bought a second one as well. It arrived folded up - there is no assembly required - you simply unfold it and place it where you want. It's relatively light weight so it's easy to move. I also like that there is a different artwork design on each side. You have two choices; you can display whichever side you like more.

May cause respiratory issues
Color: Mountains and Waters, Size: 4 Panel
The painting on this panel is beautiful and quality has held up BUT I’m almost certain this contributed to respiratory issues. It was next to my bed for a year and I recently noticed it’s still shedding red/brown dust. The wood was clearly painted over and it makes me skeptical about the wood that was used. The panel itself feels like it’s made cardboard. If you’re sensitive or plan to place this panel in a main living area, I would not recommend

Ideal to hide stuff.
Color: Mountains and Waters, Size: 6 Panel
A really decorative pice for privacy, but I will also purchase the feet separately for sturdiness.

Muted But Pretty!
Color: Mountains and Waters, Size: 3 Panel
Nice, sturdy 3-panel screen/room divider! However, could/should have been priced at $20-30 less. I like that it stands and folds easily, and there is not too much decoration or an exorbitant design. The colors are muted and would work well with many styles or color schemes. Personally, I wanted the wood frame to be a little lighter in color though.
