Following her critically acclaimed collection of short stories, City of Boys, Beth Nugent brings her dark and eerie vision to a powerful first novel.

Live Girls is the story of Catherine, in her twenties, who sells tickets in a run-down porn theater in a decrepit port city, A sign in the window of the seedy hotel where she lives reads Transients Welcome. Her only friend is Jerome, an anorexic drag queen who searches for love among the sailors.

As Catherine and Jerome set out for Hollywood, we witness -with equal horror and fascination -- their desperate attempt to find redemption in a world that offers them so little.

In haunting, stylized prose, Nugent takes us deep into her protagonist's psyche while painting a bizarre -- yet oddly familiar -- picture of a dissociated, disconnected America. Live Girls is a tour de force that will leave no one who reads it unshaken.

Great organic cotton rounds
Size: 300 Count (Pack of 3)
I use these every day after I wash my face, I've been buying these for years. Works great, high quality cotton rounds that maintain structural integrity during use, no issues with my sensitive skin, perfect thickness and consistency. Good price and this three-pack lasts ages. Best option for cotton rounds.

High quality
Size: 100 Count (Pack of 1)
These are great for sensitive skin. They have a really soft, gentle texture that I haven't found in any other cotton rounds. And they are durable---the layers don't separate---they don't fall apart. These are high quality. Highly recommend.

Perfect Cotton Rounds
Size: 300 Count (Pack of 3)
These cotton rounds are soft and sturdy. I use them twice a day to make sure my face is clean in the morning before applying my makeup and before I sleep at night.
