Synopsis
Long couched only in theological terms, and popularly personified by the despots of history, the nature of evil has resisted explanation. In this singular survey of this mysterious but all too often palpable force, veteran Time magazine writer Lance Morrow examines the unmistakable ways evil influences our global culture-and how that global culture in turn has magnified evil's menace. Its dramatic reemergence in the national consciousness-against a backdrop of high-tech, sensationalized violence-makes his updated understanding both timely and absolutely necessary.Drawing on examples both obscure and splashed across the headlines, Morrow seeks to understand how evil works, and what purpose, if any, it serves. From the heartrending to the harrowing, from quiet lies to catastrophic acts, his stories are drawn from over thirty years of experience as a revered journalist and essayist. The result is a brilliant synthesis of a lifetime of observation that elegantly illuminates a chronically elusive but fascinating subject., From award-winning essayist Lance Morrow, a provocative meditation on the nature of evil, and a daring analysis of its role in the modern world

    Skirt received, paper thin, like a nylon slip, Description makes no mention of SUPER thin material, just says faux suede. I have other faux suede skirts that are much thicker. Unwearable by most ladies, and I am a small size 4. Messaged seller, unhelpful. Purchased 9/6, received 9/16. Not returnable. Moral of the story, always buy returnable on EBAY.

    the contents were listed- suedecloth is polyester. the heading said suedecloth- not faux suede. I googled her the definition of the fabric to her. she did not read the listing.-moral of lhe story READ.before buying. paid $ 4.00 for a very nice skirt at a bargain price.
    Follow-up from: y***e- Feedback followed up by buyer.- Feedback followed up by buyer.
    Seller's statement description said "suedecloth" not faux suede; this is irrelevant. The skirt is 100% polyester! Seller's description "brown soft 100% polyester feels like suede straight skirt." "Feels like suede". Really? This skirt is thin as in tissue paper thin. Seller mentions price of 4.00, so I shouldn't complain. A buyer on Ebay should always receive an item that matches the description. Skirt is unwearable.
