Description

Heat and LightAcclaimed New York Times bestselling author Jennifer Haigh returns to the Pennsylvania town at the center of her iconic novel Baker Towers in this ambitious, achingly human story of modern America and the conflicting forces at its heart a bold, moving drama of hope and desperation, greed and power, big business and small town families. Forty years ago, Bakerton coal fueled the country. Then the mines closed, and the town wore away like a bar of soap.

Acclaimed New York Times bestselling author Jennifer Haigh returns to the Pennsylvania town at the center of her iconic novel Baker Towers in this ambitious, achingly human story of modern America and the conflicting forces at its heart--a bold, moving drama of hope and desperation, greed and power, big business and small-town families.

Forty years ago, Bakerton coal fueled the country. Then the mines closed, and the town wore away like a bar of soap. Now Bakerton has been granted a surprise third act: it sits squarely atop the Marcellus Shale, a massive deposit of natural gas.

To drill or not to drill? Prison guard Rich Devlin leases his mineral rights to finance his dream of farming. He doesn't count on the truck traffic and nonstop noise, his brother's skepticism or the paranoia of his wife, Shelby, who insists the water smells strange and is poisoning their frail daughter. Meanwhile his neighbors, organic dairy farmers Mack and Rena, hold out against the drilling--until a passionate environmental activist disrupts their lives.

Told through a cast of characters whose lives are increasingly bound by the opposing interests that underpin the national debate, Heat and Light depicts a community blessed and cursed by its natural resources. Soaring and ambitious, it zooms from drill rig to shareholders' meeting to the Three Mile Island nuclear reactor to the ruined landscape of the "strippins," haunting reminders of Pennsylvania's past energy booms. This is a dispatch from a forgotten America--a work of searing moral clarity from one of the finest writers of her generation, a courageous and necessary book.

I recently tried Tele Honeyball Face and Body Moisture Cream, and I’m honestly impressed. From the first use, it felt incredibly rich without being greasy, which is a hard balance to find. It absorbs quickly and leaves my skin feeling soft, smooth, and deeply hydrated all day. What I really love is how versatile it is—I’ve been using it on both my face and body, and it performs beautifully in both areas. My skin tends to get dry, especially with changing weather, and this cream has made a noticeable difference in keeping everything moisturized and healthy-looking. The texture is luxurious, and a little goes a long way, so it feels like a great value too. If you’re looking for a reliable, high-quality moisturizer that actually delivers on hydration, this one is definitely worth trying.

Subtle, pleasant scent. Very creamy and moisturizing. Use on face and neck for months and have purchased multiple times. Leaves skin feeling hydrated, not greasy.

Pure, non toxic, and it really works!
I just got this and it is amazing! I am 56 and my skin that used to be oily is now like fish scales even using a shower water filter. I have been using oils and they do not help. I know now that oil just helps retain moisture but post menopause skin needs to be hydrated. One application and my skin is glowing and silky again and there is no strong scent. Amazing, pure, and fairly priced product! Will be continuing to use this. I only wish it came in an 8-12oz size but I just ordered two.

Overall really good product
Melts into your skin. My skin clears up much faster after a breakout. Smells good (in my opinion). Love the glass jar. I got it mid August and still have about a months supply left so it last awhile and I use morning and night. A little goes a long way. Skin always looks better when I wake up. My only complaint is if I don’t let this soak in for a bit before going outside or being active it sweats out really bad.
