*Shortlisted for the Miles Franklin Literary Award 2020*
Elizabeth posts a 'room for rent' notice
in Trevor's bookshop and is caught off-guard when Trevor answers the ad himself. She expected a young student not a middle-aged bookseller whose
marriage has fallen apart. But Trevor is attracted to Elizabeth's house because
of the empty shed in her backyard, the perfect space for him to revive the
artistic career he abandoned years earlier. The face-blind, EH Holden-driving
Elizabeth is a solitary and feisty book editor, and she accepts him, on
probation...
Miles Franklin finalist Philip Salom has a
gift for depicting the inner states of his characters with empathy and insight.
In this poignant yet upbeat novel the past keeps returning in the most
unexpected ways. Elizabeth is at the beck and call of her ageing mother, and
the associated memories of her childhood in a Rajneesh community. Trevor's
Polish father disappeared when Trevor was fifteen, and his mother died not
knowing whether he was dead or alive. The authorities have declared him dead,
but is he?
The
Returns
is a story about the eccentricities, failings and small triumphs that humans
are capable of, a novel that pokes fun at literary and artistic pretensions,
while celebrating the expansiveness of art, kindness and friendship.
'Philip Salom...dissects the vulnerabilities of the human condition (loneliness, fear of intimacy, powerlessness, guilt), the power of the past to haunt us, the fear of the future to mire us, and the redemptive effects of love and acceptance.' — Miles Franklin Award Judges on Waiting<

Sometimes Size Does Matter
Scent: Alpine & Spice, Scent: Alpine & Spice
Let me just get this out of the way now the soap itself smells decent, nothing wrong there. I only wish I got another cent. Not that this one smells bad it’s just it wasn’t my cup of tea. I’m mostly disappointed about the size because I’ve been through this before. The soaps themselves are not big enough to fill out the box as you can spot in some of the pictures and video. I honestly feel like the soap size was different in the pictures of the customer reviews that I saw. Each bar may last me a week and a half and that’s with a soap saver. To be honest, the box that it came in would fit two decent size soaps if they filled out the box.

An excellent value for a luxurious long-lasting daily necessity
Scent: Lavender
Lovely soap with a pleasant fragrance and great lather. Real lavender buds give it an exfoliating quality without any roughness or redness. Product lasts and lasts so this crate is a true bargain. It truly is a 5 star product - I would give it 6 stars or more if possible.
I use it for facial care and am very happy with the luxurious sensation of self-care every time.

Very good bar soap
Scent: Alpine & Spice
I have been using this bar soap for about two years now. I continue to use it because of the ingredients, the way it’s manufactured, and because of how it feels on my skin in the shower and afterwards. I have only used the “no grit” flavors. The scents are ok, nothing special or exciting. Some of them barely have any scent whatsoever, and some of them have a mild scent. But none of the flavors I have tried have a strong scent, and none of the scents are bad or offensive. The lather is excellent really good lather. My skin always feels clean, hydrated, and healthy after showering with all flavors of this soap. Love this stuff. Crate 61 customer support is excellent.

Organic made.
Scent: eucamint
The smells are soothing in these soaps. They lather well and the price is affordable, especially for organically made.
