Anderson's imaginative and highly intelligent exploration of . . . the ambiguous history of America's origins will leave readers impatient for the sequel. -- THE NEW YORK TIMES BOOK REVIEW

Young Octavian is being raised by a group of rational philosophers known only by numbers -- but it is only after he opens a forbidden door that learns the hideous nature of their experiments, and his own chilling role them. Set in Revolutionary Boston, M. T. Anderson's mesmerizing novel takes place at a time when Patriots battled to win liberty while African slaves were entreated to risk their lives for a freedom they would never claim. The first of two parts, this deeply provocative novel reimagines past as an eerie place that has startling resonance for readers today.

Good pillow, not the best overall but it's good value for what you pay.
Size: 20 in x 54 in, Style: 1 Pack
Can be slightly uncomfortable at first, but it goes away quickly, very soft and doesn't hold shape very well, but pillowcases fit well on it, it's pretty quality, and it's durable. There's not much more you can ask for in a pillow.

Love being able to change with the seasons!
Size: 20 x 20 inches, Style: 4 Pack
I’ve been using the Amazon Basics Square Hypoallergenic Pillow Inserts with my seasonal pillow covers, and I absolutely love them. I like to switch out my covers each month or holiday, and these inserts make it so easy to keep my living room looking fresh and festive year-round. They hold their shape really well and give my pillows a full, plush look without feeling too stiff. I also appreciate that they’re hypoallergenic, which is a big plus for my home. Overall, these inserts are a great staple to have if you enjoy decorating with interchangeable covers. They’re comfortable, reliable, and perfect for keeping up with seasonal décor changes. Highly recommend!
