"On rare occasions I read a book that reminds me of why I fell in love with storytelling in the first place. This is such a book." ―Stephen KingPeter Blauner's epic Picture in the Sand is a sweeping intergenerational saga told through a grandfather's passionate letters to his grandson, passing on the story of his political rebellion in 1950s Egypt in order to save his grandson's life in a post-9/11 world.
When Alex Hassan gets accepted to an Ivy League university, his middle-class Egyptian-American family is filled with pride and excitement. But that joy turns to shock when they discover that he’s run off to the Middle East to join a holy war instead. When he refuses to communicate with everyone else, his loving grandfather Ali emails him one last plea. If Alex will stay in touch, his grandfather will share with Alex – and only Alex – a manuscript containing the secret story of his own life that he’s kept hidden from his family, until now.
It's the tale of his romantic and heartbreaking past rooted in Hollywood and the post-revolutionary Egypt of the 1950s, when young Ali was a movie fanatic who attained a dream job working for the legendary director Cecil B. DeMille on the set of his epic film, The Ten Commandments. But Ali’s vision of a golden future as an American movie mogul gets upended when he is unwittingly caught up in a web of politics, espionage, and real-life events that change the course of history.
It's a narrative he’s told no one for more than a half-century. But now he’s forced to unearth the past to save a young man who’s about to make the same tragic mistakes he made so long ago.

Effective but slightly greasy
I purchased this for my brother, who has been suffering from eczema and psoriasis for over a decade, and he's never been able to find a product that works for him for longer than a few weeks. The product had already leaked and wasn't packed properly when it arrived, so the sides of the jar were extremely greasy.
Absorption is great - it looks like the skin drinks it right up, if applied nominally. I can't speak to long-term effects yet, but there is an immediate reduction in redness and flakiness. Itching does not subside.

Highly recommend! Lifesaver for sensitive dry eczema
Bought this with their face wash, no regrets. My sensitive, peeling eczema face was getting red and uncomfortable (not to mention peeling no matter what special Derm sample products I tried). This is THICK. A little goes a long way. I pat it into my face and dry eczema patches after using the face wash. It lasts awhile, love that it contains aloe. My redness and literal peeling nose, cheek and chin are 80% better after using 2wks. Immediately felt better with first use. Cannot really use under makeup! This is heavy and a bedtime product.

It does work!
My child was diagnosed with severe eczema and takes the Dupixent shot once a month. He had to stop it for a month before and a month after in order to take his live MMR vaccine. This cream is the first one we have used the actually works. He will still have to get back on his shots, but for a baby with mild to moderate eczema, this might do the trick! Tried it on myself in a few spots and could tell a difference overnight.

Works but packaging is not good,
This stuff really helped my daughter's eczema so I ordered again but when I took the film off the container the jar was oily. I opened the jar and the seal was completely off, stuck to the top of the lid and there was specks that weren't in the last jar. I'm pretty disappointed.

Temporary relief well worth it.
4 stars only because this has not cleared up my 1 year olds eczema in days like the ads say. It IS a great product though. We have gone through almost 3 jars in a week and a half, the skin just seems to soak it in. It has dramatically improved the inflammation and flaky-ness but unfortunately the deep itch persists. We have safely used it on eyelids. It does have an interesting smell to it, I don't mind it but my 9 year old comments on it every time it's used.
Product works well enough and provides temporary relief that we've purchased other items from the shop.
