Michel Faber's short stories are markedly diverse-the voice of each is so distinct that the book reads like an anthology of different writers. But Faber's radically inventive style fastens all fifteen stories into a compelling collection deserving of the high praise it garnered in the United Kingdom. One surreal story, Fish, projects a futuristic world populated with fish swimming in the air. As sharks hover in abandoned corners and human zealots of the Church of the Armageddon loose their fanaticism on the innocent, it's a mother's full-time job to protect her young daughter. The title story, Some Rain Must Fall, tells of a substitute schoolteacher called on in a crisis, and as she encourages her pupils to express their feelings, we learn the source of the class's trouble: a devastating act that resonates with contemporary America. As Garth Morris wrote in the Mail on Sunday (London), these are well-crafted pieces of quiet forlorn intensity in a very real world.

Orange looking, but large capacity
Size: One Size, Color: Brown
I ended up returning this product, it looks more orange in color than what is pictured. Also, it doesn't smell like leather. On a positive note, it was inexpensive and did have a large organization capacity.

Best wallet on the market.
Size: One Size, Color: Nubuck Black, Size: One Size, Color: Nubuck Black
This is the only wallet I buy now. Over and over. I like simple wallets. No bifold. Trifolds hurt your back. Hard case are a mess that rub your credit card mag strips off from friction. I found this a few years back and have bought 3. I am a stone worker so mine get worn from the dust and grit in my pockets faster than normal wear and I need to swap them out every couple of years. I like the simplicity and the fact that the pockets are stitched the same depth so your cards stack like varying length stair-style tabs rather than all the same depth. Wallet is RDIF protection lined. I can put like 15 cards in this wallet and it’s still thinner than a bifold holding 5. I love it. I mean it. I haven’t found a better wallet than this one. They are very well-built. Picture shows wallet with 19 cards + 40 dollars. 3/4 of an inch thick.

Good product although the leather is a bit stiff. Hopefully it will soften up over time. Fair price, fast shipping…
