Nominee, 2012 NAACP Image Award for Outstanding Literary Work in Poetry

The poems in Nikky Finney's breathtaking new collection Head Off & Split sustain a sensitive and intense dialogue with emblematic figures and events in African American life: from civil rights matriarch Rosa Parks to former secretary of state Condoleezza Rice, from a brazen girl strung out on lightning to a terrified woman abandoned on a rooftop during Hurricane Katrina. Finney's poetic voice is defined by an intimacy that holds a soft yet exacting eye on the erotic, on uncanny political and family events, like her mother's wedding waltz with South Carolina senator Strom Thurmond, and then again on the heartbreaking hilarity of an American president's final State of the Union address.

Artful and intense, Finney's poems ask us to be mindful of what we fraction, fragment, cut off, dice, dishonor, or throw away, powerfully evoking both the lawless and the sublime.

SOOOO GOOD
Pattern Name: 50 count (1 pack of 50 ct)
I finally caved and bought these. I wish I would have hoped on this trend when it was first talked about in the skincare community because they are SO good, soft but also exfoliating, no scent, perfect for your face or anything else you want to clean. I did get the XL size without noticing but I’ll be buying these regularly. It makes doing my skincare at night so much easier.

Strong, but soft on your face
Pattern Name: 100 count (2 packs of 50 ct)
They are nice and strong, they don’t tear. It is nice having a clean cloth to wash your face with.

💙 The Secret to a Cleaner Face & Clearer Skin
Pattern Name: 50 count (1 pack of 50 ct), Pattern Name: 50 count (1 pack of 50 ct)
“I’ve been using these Clean Skin Club Clean Towels and I really like them! They’re soft, durable, and feel much cleaner than using the same face towel repeatedly. They’re gentle on my skin, don’t cause irritation, and are great for drying my face after washing. I also love that they’re disposable and help keep bacteria away from my skincare routine. Definitely a great addition for anyone with sensitive or acne-prone skin. Highly recommend! 💙🧴”

High quality cloths
Pattern Name: 50 count (1 pack of 50 ct)
These are high quality and do as intended. My only con is the price. However, I cut them in half and they last twice as long
