Ireland 590 A.D.

A woman is found by a track, nearly dead from appalling wounds and remembers nothing. Her terror and her injuries are so great that she is given sanctuary in Mother Gobnait's unusual community of nuns, while all around her a war is being waged in which she is a pawn. The women name her Aine.

Disturbing fragments of ine's memory begin to surface, and in desperation she asks to remain in the safety of the community, but is it really safe for her anywhere?

It is only after events take another terrible turn that ine is forced to discover who she really is and make life-changing choices - but will they prove to be her undoing?

A literary novel inspired by real women - complex female characters who strain against the cruel chains and crippling prejudices of a society where no woman has power. Except, perhaps, one...

Kristin Gleeson has performed with admirable deftness the difficult trick of sweeping the reader back in time to the distant emotional and physical landscapes of 6th century Ireland. The result is a highly readable and continuously rewarding novel that the reader does not want to end--Tim Weed, author of Will Poole's Island

I found in this well-told story, the first strokes of paint on the huge, mostly blank, canvas that is our image and perception of our Irish or Gaelic past - the canvas of our increasingly dispossessed native culture. I found myself drawn into a realm that felt oddly familiar and full of cultural touchstones of the indigenous Irish past, faint echoes of which still linger in parts of this island today.In Praise of the Bees is a good read.

Please do NOT reship items like body soap that have been returned
Scent: Seagrass & Driftwood, Size: 32 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Scent: Seagrass & Driftwood, Size: 32 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
So I've purchased this twice now, I love the scent and I love how it lathers up, overall very happy with the produce so long as I get a product that wasn't previously returned. The 2nd order I received, it was clear that someone had replaced the soap in the bottle with some other kind of liquid and returned it and I got it. First off that has to be dangerous and hazardous. As you can see from the pictures, something is wrong with this product. The first product I got had a clean scent, was clearly a body soap liquid. The 2nd product I ordered was more water, smelled had virtually no scent at all. Unfortunately I had already poured it into my soap dispenser so it's now not returnable. PLEASE DO NOT SHIP OUT RETURNED ITEMS!! It's dangerous

Good soap
Size: 5.3 Ounce (Pack of 4)
It was so good that my friends took some for themselves. Without asking. Bastarts... good deal though, smells very nice! Especially that whisky one. The coarse texture makes for a great clean!

Quality Men’s Soap
Size: 5.3 Ounce (Pack of 4)
I purchased this bar soap for my three grandsons and my granddaughter’s boyfriend. They are all in their 20s and liked the fact that the soap lasted longer than the soaps they usually use. I did give them each a different scent and they appreciated the fact that the scent was not overwhelming, but subtle. Generally speaking, young men this age usually do not purchase quality soap or personal hygiene items mainly because of cost. They all were very pleased with the surprise gift and proceeded to use it immediately. I would compare it to the expensive Dr. Squatch bar soaps. I bought these on sale and felt like I had gotten a very good deal. It is a pleasure to give someone a gift that they normally would not purchase themselves. I will continue to shop this website for future purchases and wholeheartedly recommend Rinse and Robust Men’s Bar Soap.
