A new biography of Alma Mahler (1879-1964), revealing a woman determined to wield power in a world that denied her agencyHistory has long vilified Alma Mahler. Critics accused her of distracting Gustav Mahler from his work, and her passionate love affairs shocked her peers. Drawing on Alma's vivid, sensual, and overlooked diaries, biographer Cate Haste recounts the untold and far more sympathetic story of this ambitious and talented woman. Though she dreamed of being the first woman to compose a famous opera, Alma was stifled by traditional social values. Eventually, she put her own dreams aside and wielded power and influence the only way she could, by supporting the art of more famous men. She worked alongside them and gained credit as their muse, commanding their love and demanding their respect.
Passionate Spirit restores vibrant humanity to a woman time turned into a caricature, providing an important correction to a history where systemic sexism has long erased women of talent.

Cute and well loved.
Color: gray & pink, Color: gray & pink
My dog gives this 5 stars because she loves to destroy stuffies and this was no exception. She immediately removed the ears and tail, along with the little nubs that were supposed to be nostrils. I give is a few points because she still hasn't removed any legs. I thought it was so cute, and it is far less cute since my dog has had her way with it. She still loves it however…so it is a winner in our book. The photo is after only a couple hours of play

Toughs toys
Color: gray & pink
These toys are tough. We have a Great Dane and Sheppard that play tug of war with it no tears or rips. What’s great also the squeak is not loud and obnoxious like othe squeaky toys!

Please check the size!!!
Color: lake blue, Color: lake blue
Even though the caption says for small, Med and Large breed, make sure you pay attention to the size. With the price I thought it was a reg size dog toy, but it's about the size of my hand. I usually dont read the reviews often on dog toys (stuffys) but will definitely, start. I was shocked when I opened the package.
Not sure of durability yet. He will not get it for a few more days (his b-day) but feels like its made well.
Update: (See pic) He had it for 15 min.. it didnt last. He doesnt typically have issues
