LONGLISTED for the 2017 NATIONAL BOOK AWARD FOR FICTION An urgent, essential collection of stories about immigration, broken dreams, Los Angeles gang members, Latin American families, and other tales of high stakes journeys, from the award-winning author of War by Candlelight and At Night We Walk in Circles.Migration. Betrayal. Family secrets. Doomed love. Uncertain futures. In Daniel Alarc n's hands, these are transformed into deeply human stories with high stakes. In "The Thousands," people are on the move and forging new paths; hope and heartbreak abound. A man deals with the fallout of his blind relatives' mysterious deaths and his father's mental breakdown and incarceration in "The Bridge." A gang member discovers a way to forgiveness and redemption through the haze of violence and trauma in "The Ballad of Rocky Rontal." And in the tour de force novella, "The Auroras", a man severs himself from his old life and seeks to make a new one in a new city, only to find himself seduced and controlled by a powerful woman. Richly drawn, full of unforgettable characters, The King is Always Above the People reveals experiences both unsettling and unknown, and yet eerily familiar in this new world.

Nice feeling paper.
Size: 800 Sheets (24lb)
Very nice paper. It has a good smooth feel to it on top of a nice weight. I haven’t had any problems with it getting jammed in the printer.

Exactly As Advertised
Size: 500 Sheets (20lb)
What can you say about printer paper? It needs to be the right size, the right weight, the right color. This fits all those requirements perfectly. I only take away one star because it is so Basic, just like the title says: it is printer/typing paper and it does a great job of that. It does not cost an arm and a leg, like some paper does. I have run half a ream through my printer so far and no jams or misfeeds.

Nice paper, badly packed for delivery
Size: 800 Sheets (24lb), Size: 800 Sheets (24lb)
The paper is good, the price is decent, but they threw this oversize "ream" in a box and let it bounce around. The box was about an inch or two larger in all three dimensions than the paper, and they didn't put any packing paper in the box to hold it in place. The paper itself arrived mostly undamaged but the wrapper was destroyed. Since most of the paper was OK, I didn't want to make an issue out of it with Amazon and send it back, and risk having another "ream" arrive in even worse condition.

Very Good Paper for Everyday Personal and Business Use
Size: 1500 Sheets (24lb)
I have purchased these 3 packs of this 24lb letter-sized paper several times. It is just fine for everyday usage and I have no problem with it in my Canon B&W and Color laser printers. Print quality is good and sharp. This is much better than the fairly flimsy 20lb and is very suitable for ordinary business usage. It also works quite well for two-sided printing as the back side does not show through. But it is not 28lb+ manuscript quality and should not be expected to be.
