Wodehouse: A LifeTo Evelyn Waugh he was simply "the Master." He wrote ninety novels and story collections, and among his immortal characters are Jeeves, Psmith, and the Empress of Blandings (who is, of course, a pig). Equally impressive is the range of his devotees: Dorothy Parker, John Updike, Ludwig Wittgenstein, Salman Rushdie, John le Carre, and Seamus Heaney. Wodehouse had an extraordinary Broadway career, working with Guy Bolton and Jerome Kern, and even dared

To Evelyn Waugh he was simply "the Master." He wrote ninety novels and story collections, and among his immortal characters are Jeeves, Psmith, and the Empress of Blandings (who is, of course, a pig). Equally impressive is the range of his devotees: Dorothy Parker, John Updike, Ludwig Wittgenstein, Salman Rushdie, John le Carre, and Seamus Heaney. Wodehouse had an extraordinary Broadway career, working with Guy Bolton and Jerome Kern, and even dared to rewrite Cole Porter's Anything Goes for the London stage. Robert McCrum's magisterial biography chronicles the achievements and shadows of a gilded life. The ill-judged broadcasts from Berlin, where Wodehouse was interned during World War II, produced a violent backlash in England and tarred him, unfairly, as a Nazi sympathizer. His long love affair with America was compromised by endless acrimony with the IRS. This is the book all Wodehouse fans have been waiting for; it eclipses all previous accounts of his life. An Economist Best Book of 2004.

Excellent for the beach
We have struggled with effective beach sunscreens for kids & adults. On the beach, it's a must to reapply frequently, but some sunscreens don't even last the 80 minutes. This one is true to its advertisement and isn't so thick that it's difficult to spread. We also really like their kids face stick.

Lasts a long time
I've been using this sunscreen on myself and two kids almost daily for the past two months or so. And we are still not even half through one bottle - there's plenty of product in there and you only need a little bit. I like that this lotion absorbs fast and doesn't wear off for a very long time. It has a mild fragrance and a bit of an oily texture. But it does a great job protecting skin from the sun.

Quality sunscreen
Works just as expected. Don't apply too much at once, just enough for thin layer so it doesn't just sit on top of the skin and actually absorbs properly. Not too oily. The smell is pleasant and not too strong. Definitely need to reapply as directed for maximum protection. Pretty easy to open with one hand if needed, which is an added plus.
