The Death of the Heart is perhaps Elizabeth Bowen's best-known book. As she deftly and delicately exposes the cruelty that lurks behind the polished surfaces of conventional society, Bowen reveals herself as a masterful novelist who combines a sense of humor with a devastating gift for divining human motivations. In this piercing story of innocence betrayed set in the thirties, the orphaned Portia is stranded in the sophisticated and politely treacherous world of her wealthy half-brother's home in London.There she encounters the attractive, carefree cad Eddie. To him, Portia is at once child and woman, and her fears her gushing love. To her, Eddie is the only reaason to be alive. But when Eddie follows Portia to a sea-side resort, the flash of a cigarette lighter in a darkened cinema illuminates a stunning romantic betrayal--and sets in motion one of the most moving and desperate flights of the heart in modern literature.Binding Type: Paperback

It survived longer than others
Pattern Name: Pull Monkey, Pattern Name: Pull Monkey
My Maltese mix has destroyed every single one of his squeaker toys within a week. This is the only stuffed toy I've found so far that lasted almost 2 months before he successfully gutted and 3 months before it officially needed to be replaced. I mean, just look at the image and see the rough play it's been through.
I do wish the squeaker was larger to help it survive just a bit longer but I am pretty happy with this toy and so is my dog. The rope arms and legs are great features as they slide through the body and really helps encourage tug play. The price is fair for the size and quality of the construction and is overall a pretty good purchase. I plan to buy a few more to keep as backup.

Great toy for dogs who like to pull
Pattern Name: Pull Monkey
My dog loves tug of war (non-stop) and I thought this would be perfect for him. He loves it. He plays with it constantly and it's held up to the non stop pulling.

Very durable and adorable
Pattern Name: Octopus Purple
My dog absolutely adores this toy! She has a habit of destroying stuffies really quick, but this cute octopus has lasted so far. I love the legs that stretch out so we can play tug of war! I am going to buy another one in a different color! Def worth buying!

Great quality and indestructible
Pattern Name: Octopus Purple
My pitbull pup loves this and so far it's been indestructible. She's a very heavy chewer so it's hard to find toys that last and this one is passing the test.
