La historia de Ucrania contada a través de una apasionante saga familiar, que recuerda el impacto de Unorthodox, Todo está iluminado o La octava vida«Me dejó sin respiración. Una de las mejores autobiografías del año». --R. Tomaszewska, Virago (Reino Unido) En 2014, Vika regresa a su Ucrania natal para investigar un misterio familiar: cómo murió su tío tatarabuelo Nikodim en la década de 1930 y por qué su historia sigue siendo tabú casi un siglo después. Desentrañar viejas incógnitas resulta complicado, pero nunca habría previsto que la resistencia más fuerte la encontraría en su abuela Valentina, que le prohíbe remover el pasado. No en vano Ucrania es «tierra de sangre», como sus vecinas Polonia, Bielorrusia, Rusia y los países bálticos: en el área de Poltava, donde residió la familia, el KGB desapareció hace ya mucho, pero su antiguo cuartel general todavía aterroriza a los lugareños. Mientras el país se sumerge en un nuevo conflicto con Rusia tras la anexión de Crimea, el lector acompaña a Vika entre los temidos archivos del KGB en busca de la verdad sobre el pasado del país y sobre Nikodim, incluso a riesgo de un enfrentamiento directo con su familia. Entre el memoir y la novela detectivesca, esta obra conjuga su enorme carga emocional con un lúcido análisis de la historia. Al tiempo que Victoria Belim terminaba esta novela sobre una Ucrania que intentaba hacer las paces con su pasado y florecer, su tierra se enfrentaba de nuevo al dolor de otra cruel guerra. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION A timely and deeply moving memoir of the author's Ukrainian family history, interwoven with the country's tumultuous story In 2014, the landmarks of Victoria Belim's personal geography were plunged into tumult at the hands of Russia. Her hometown Kyiv was gripped by protests and violent suppression. Crimea, where she'd once been sent to school to avoid radiation from the nuclear disaster at Chernobyl, was invaded. Kharkiv, where her grandmother Valentina studied economics and fell in love; Donetsk, where her father once worked; and Mariupol, where she and her mother bought a cherry tree for Valentina's garden all became battlegrounds. A naturalized American citizen then living in Brussels, Belim felt she had to go back. She had to spend time with her aging grandmother and her cousin Dima. She had to unravel a family mystery spanning several generations. And she needed to understand how her country's tragic history of communist revolution, civil war, famine, world war, totalitarianism, and fraught independence had changed the course of their lives. The Rooster House is a beautifully written memoir of a family, a country's past, and its dangerous present. It is about parents and children, true believers and victims, gardens and art, secrets and tragedy. Compulsively readable, deeply moving, and at times laugh-out-loud funny, it is a stunning debut book by an experienced, expressive, and gifted writer.

Perfect consistency and gentle enough for rosacea
Scent: Honey & Sweet Orange, Size: 5 Ounce (Pack of 1)
This is one of the best tallow-based moisturizers I’ve tried. I rarely leave reviews, but this product truly deserves one. The consistency is perfect—rich and nourishing without feeling heavy or greasy, and it absorbs beautifully into the skin. It doesn’t feel thick or like you’re wearing a mask.
The scent is also very mild with a light hint of orange that fades quickly after application, which I really appreciate since many natural products can be overpowering.
I have rosacea and very sensitive skin, and this is one of the few natural skincare products that hasn’t caused irritation or redness. It leaves my skin feeling calm, hydrated, and balanced.
If you’re looking for a high-quality tallow moisturizer for sensitive or rosacea-prone skin, I highly recommend giving this one a try.

Too thick and greasy for my sensitive skin
Scent: Honey & Sweet Orange, Size: 5 Ounce (Pack of 1), Scent: Honey & Sweet Orange, Size: 5 Ounce (Pack of 1)
This is the fifth different beef tallow product that I’ve tried in the last few months. I’ve been in search for the perfect one that doesn’t leave my skin feeling greasy. I was really excited to try this after reading the great reviews, however this product is not for me. It is very thick, almost waxy like and I almost have to use my fingernail just to get it out. I know it’s not whipped and that it’s a balm, but it is way too thick and heavy for me. I’ve been looking for a nice moisturizer for my face, but this is far too greasy for my oily sensitive skin, especially on my face. I have been using it on my chest and neck and even on my legs and it is very hydrating and makes my chest extremely soft, even 12 hours after I put it on. I love that it’s a clean product with great ingredients. It has a very mild scent, almost non-detectable. I was really hoping this would be a good one for my face, sadly it did not hit the mark for my sensitive skin.

Amazing!
Scent: Unscented, Size: 8 Ounce (Pack of 1), Scent: Unscented, Size: 8 Ounce (Pack of 1)
I’ve been using this for a few days now and my skin has already improved so much!! My skin feels sooo much smoother, especially in the areas where my dry spots were really showing. This tallow helped smooth everything out and absorbed into my skin amazingly. I honestly have nothing but good things to say about this product.
I also love that it comes in a big jar because I use moisturizer 24/7, so this will definitely last me a while. It’s been especially amazing for my eczema it cleared up within just a few days! I will forever repurchase this and recommend it to everyone.
There’s no fragrance, which I love. It does feel a little greasy at first, but that goes away pretty quickly once it absorbs. The application, size, and absorption are all amazing 💕

Not bad for the price point.
Scent: Unscented, Size: 8 Ounce (Pack of 1)
I don't mind this product; it's well-priced; however, in practice, it was slightly too oily. I prefer other beef tallow products, or even just straight-up beef tallow, rather than this product. Because I have severe eczema on my hands, I prefer tallow blends that have faster absorption. However, this product is perfectly suited for use as a night moisturizer or as a hand mask. I would probably buy this again if the formulation were less oily/greasy next time.
