Uno de los mejores libros en español del 2020 del New York Times "Autobiografía del algodón dota de un nuevo y extraordinario significante al territorio de la frontera norte de México, que aquí se erige majestuoso sobre el movimiento nómada y la ruta de los recuerdos." - Yásnaya Elena Aguilar. Indagar sobre el origen personal es abrir una puerta a muchas preguntas a silencios y respuestas impensadas que aveces terminan por ser un revés de la memoria. En autobiografía del algodón, Cristina Rivera Garza sigue con curiosidad y asombro los pasos de aquellos hombres y mujeres que habitan su pasado familiar, obreros, campesinos que trabajaron la tierra que ahora conforma la frontera entre Tamaulipas y Texas, una región que alcanzó un alto nivel económico, social y cultural gracias al sistema de siembra del algodón. Es así que esta novela es, además de íntima, un reencuentro con el territorio. O un desencuentro, debido a la migración, deportación, expulsión y repatriación de aquellos campesinos algodoneros, que tras el fracaso del sistema, dejaron libre su espacio, antes símbolo de progreso, hoy ocupado por la llamada guerra contra el narco. ENGLISH DESCRIPTIONOne of the best Spanish Books of 2020 by The New York Times The Autobiography of Cotton provides a new and extraordinary signifier to the territory of the northern border of Mexico, that here raises up majestically upon the nomadic movement and the route of memories." - Yásnaya Elena Aguilar. To look into personal origins is to open the door to many questions of silence and unthinkable answers that sometimes end up being a mishap of memory. In The Autobiography of Cotton, Cristina Rivera Garza follows, with curiosity and amazement, the steps of those men and women who dwell in her family's past, laborers, peasants who worked the land that now makes up the border between Tamaulipas and Texas, a region that achieved economic, social, and cultural prosperity thanks to the cultivation of cotton. Thus, this novel is, in addition to being intimate, a reunion with the land. Or, a disunion, due to the migration, deportation, expulsion, and repatriation of those cotton workers, who after the system failed, left their area unoccupied, before a symbol of progress, today taken over by the so-called war on drugs,

Perfect for sensitive skin
Size: 1.3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I have insanely sensitive, blemish prone skin and have been struggling to find skincare products that don’t irritate my skin. This was recommended to me by my dermatology office and I’m obsessed. My skin doesn’t get irritated and I don’t break out. It feels amazing. Not too thick, not too thin. As an added bonus, it smells great.

Great for sensitive skin and moisture protection
Size: 6.7 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Size: 6.7 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I love this brand of products and i initially bought this thinking it was a facial lotion. I was going to return it but I was pleasantly surprised after feeling the texture and then trying it out. My skin was in a drying phase so after using this I could sense a noticeable improvement in my skins softened and hydration. There is no scent and it has a very rich lather so a little goes a long way. The amount is perfect for the price and it is one of the better values.
