In this innovative synthesis of words and images, the award-winning author of Open City and photography critic for The New York Times Magazine combines two of his great passions. One of Time's Top 10 Non-Fiction Books of the Year - One of Smithsonian.com's Ten Best Photography Books of the Year When it comes to Teju Cole, the unexpected is not unfamiliar: He's an acclaimed novelist, an influential essayist, and an internationally exhibited photographer. In Blind Spot, readers follow Cole's inimitable artistic vision into the visual realm as he continues to refine the voice, eye, and intellectual obsessions that earned him such acclaim for Open City. Here, journey through more than 150 of Cole's full-color original photos, each accompanied by his lyrical and evocative prose, forming a multimedia diary of years of near-constant travel: from a park in Berlin to a mountain range in Switzerland, a church exterior in Lagos to a parking lot in Brooklyn; landscapes and interiors, beautiful or quotidian, that inspire Cole's memories, fantasies, and introspections. Ships in Capri remind him of the work of writers from Homer to Edna O'Brien; a hotel room in Wannsee brings back a disturbing dream about a friend's death; a home in Tivoli evokes a transformative period of semi-blindness, after which "the photography changed. . . . The looking changed." As exquisitely wrought as the work of Anne Carson or Chris Marker, Blind Spot is a testament to the art of seeing by one of the most powerful and original voices in contemporary literature. Praise for Blind Spot "Common things are] made radiant by the quality of Cole's looking. . . . In this new, luminous book, Cole shows himself to be really one of the best at seeing."--The Guardian "This lyrical essay in photographs paired with texts explores the mysteries of the ordinary."--The New York Times Books Review (Editors' Choice) "Stunning . . . feels like the fulfillment of an intellectual project that has defined most of Cole's] career."--Slate "Dazzling . . . cerebral yet intimate . . . combines personal essay, history, biography, journalism, and photography into a seamless package, capturing human dignity and grace through careful, clear-eyed reverence."--Vice "An eclectically brilliant distillation of what photography can do, and why it remains an important art form."--San Francisco ChronicleBinding Type: Hardcover

Powerful, Versatile & So Easy to Use!
Color: Black
This immersion blender exceeded my expectations! The 1100W motor is super powerful and blends everything smoothly-from soups to smoothies—in seconds. I love the trigger speed control because it gives me full control depending on the texture I want.
The attachments are a huge bonus-the whisk works great for eggs and batters, and the milk frother is perfect for my morning coffee. It's lightweight, easy to handle, and super convenient compared to using a bulky blender. Cleanup is quick, which is a big plus for everyday use.
Overall, a versatile and reliable kitchen tool that makes cooking so much easier!

Quiet, powerful, and very easy to use
Color: Black, Color: Black
Very convenient and stylish milk frother. I use it every day for coffee and matcha — the foam becomes thick in just a few seconds. It works quietly, holds a charge well, and the wireless design with USB charging is very convenient. The handle is lightweight and comfortable to hold. Great value for making café-style drinks at home.

Powerful and good battery life
Color: Black
I’ve been really happy with this rechargeable milk frother. It works great for making cappuccinos, lattes, and even matcha and hot chocolate. The dual spring whisk creates a nice, creamy foam very quickly, much better than I expected for such a compact device.
I also like that it’s rechargeable, so I don’t have to constantly buy or replace batteries. The battery life is solid and it holds a charge well. It’s lightweight, easy to handle, and doesn’t take up much space in the kitchen, which makes it perfect for daily use.

I love it because it doesn’t use batteries — you just recharge it and that’s it. Plus, it’s very powerful and works really well. Honestly, I didn’t expect it to be this good. Great option and excellent value for the price.
