From the author of Mockingbird--the first authoritative biography of Kurt Vonnegut Jr., a writer who forever altered American literature
In 2006, Charles Shields reached out to Kurt Vonnegut in a letter asking for his endorsement for a planned biography. The first response was no (A most respectful demurring by me for the excellent writer Charles J. Shields, who offered to be my biographer). Unwilling to take no for an answer, propelled by a passion for his subject, and already deep into his research, Shields wrote again and this time, to his delight, the answer came back: O.K. For the next year--a year that ended up being Vonnegut's last--Shields had unprecedented access to Vonnegut and his letters. While millions know Vonnegut as a counterculture guru, antiwar activist, and satirist of American culture, few outside his closest friends and family knew the full arc of his extraordinary life. And So It Goes changes that, painting the portrait of a man who made friends easily but always felt lonely, sold millions of books but never felt appreciated, and described himself as a humanist but fought with humanity at large. As a former public relations man, Vonnegut crafted his image carefully--the avuncular, curly-haired humorist--though he admitted, I myself am a work of fiction. The extremely wide and overwhelmingly positive review coverage for And So It Goes has been nothing less than extraordinary and confirm it as the definitive biography of Kurt Vonnegut.Binding Type: Paperback

Strong and reliable for everyday use
Size: 140 Count (Pack of 1)
I’ve been using these trash bags and I’m honestly impressed. They are very strong and don’t tear easily, even when they’re full or holding heavier items. I like that they have a good capacity and fit perfectly in my kitchen trash can.
They also help prevent leaks and bad odors, which is a big plus. I’ve used them for daily trash as well as bigger clean-ups, and they’ve held up really well every time.
Definitely a reliable option if you’re looking for durability and quality. I would buy them again

Great bags
Size: 140 Count (Pack of 1), Size: 140 Count (Pack of 1)
I’ve been really impressed with the Glad ForceFlex Tall Kitchen Trash Bags. The durability is definitely noticeable, they hold up well even with heavier trash and don’t tear easily. The ForceFlex feature really makes a difference because the bags stretch instead of ripping. The Gain Lavender scent is also a huge plus, it actually smells fresh and helps keep the kitchen from smelling like garbage. Overall, they’re strong, reliable, and make taking out the trash a lot less unpleasant.

Great scent and convenient design – good everyday trash bags
Size: 40 Count (Pack of 1), Size: 40 Count (Pack of 1)
These were the perfect size for my tall kitchen trash can and fit really well without slipping. The lavender scent is fresh and noticeable without being overpowering, which I really like.
One of my favorite features is how easy it is to pull out the next bag. It makes changing the trash quick and simple, which is super convenient for everyday use.
The bags are white but still do a good job of covering what’s inside, so they offer a decent amount of privacy.
They weren’t quite as strong as I expected, especially with heavier loads, but they still held up well enough for regular household trash.
Pros:
• Fresh, pleasant scent
• Perfect fit for tall kitchen cans
• Easy to pull out and use the next bag
• Good coverage for privacy
Cons:
• Not as strong as expected for heavier trash
Overall, I think these are a great value for the price and I would buy them again.

Durable
Size: 140 Count (Pack of 1)
The Glad ForceFlex trash bags are strong and reliable, thanks to their stretchable design that helps prevent rips and leaks. The Gain lavender scent with Febreze keeps your kitchen smelling fresh, which is a big plus. The drawstring makes tying and carrying easy. Only downside—they can be a bit pricey compared to basic bags, but the quality makes up for it.
