Pushing against the boundaries of what poetry might be, Alison Glenny’s The Farewell Tourist is haunting, many-layered and slightly surreal. In The Magnetic Process sequence a man and a woman inhabit a polar world, adrift in zones of divergence, where dreams are filled with snow, icebergs, and sinking ships. Their scientific instruments and observations measure a fragmented and uncertain space where conventional perspectives are violated. In a series of histories – of the Atmosphere, of the Honeymoon – footnotes reference vanished texts. By turns mysterious, ominous and evocative, they represent connections to an obscured narrative of disintegration and icy melancholy.

The shoes are incredible for the price. They are not the most confortable, but they look very elegant and fit perfectly. It adjusts rightly. I got 2 pairs. My brother has his feet wider than mine, and the shoes fit perfectly.

Looks nice but not comfortable
Size: 9.5, Color: Black
Look nice, fit well, but there is no cushion on the sole so feet hurt after wearing for even a short time.

Nice shoes
Size: 11, Color: Black
bought for my husband to wear to a funeral. Since he would only be wearing them for a day as we don't dress up ever he didn't want to spend allot. The shoes themselves look more expensive than they were and he said that they were comfortable enough. Not sure how well they will last with daily wear. the services had allot of dirt and the shoes were easy to wipe clean with a damp towel
