In this fascinating book, Pulitzer Prize-winning author Tracy Kidder takes us inside the everyday workings of Northampton, Massachusetts -- a place that seems to personify the typical American hometown. Kidder unveils the complex drama behind the seemingly ordinary lives of Northampton's residents. And out of these stories he creates a splendid, startling portrait of a town, in a narrative that gracefully travels among past and present, public and private, joy and sorrow.
A host of real people are alive in these pages: a tycoon with a crippling ailment; a criminal whom the place has beguiled, a genial and merciful judge, a single mother struggling to start a new life at Smith College; and, at the center, a policeman who patrols the streets of his beloved hometown with a stern yet endearing brand of morality -- and who is about to discover the peril of spending a whole life in one small place. Their stories take us behind the town's facades and reveal how individuals shape the social conscience of a community. Home Town is an unflinching yet lovingly rendered account of how a traditional American town endures and evolves at the turn of the millenniums.

Super comfy and pretty
Color: Black, Size: X-Large
Fit is nice and comfortable!!! Soft in the inside as well! It’s not huge but also doesn’t stick to me. You can literally wear it down (casual with jeans or shorts) or dress up (like I did for Mother’s Day with a nice skirt and jacket) Seems breathable enough for our California heat

Great quality and affordably priced
Color: Coral, Size: X-Large
I live in a very hot, humid climate and despise clingy clothes. This shirt looks great, feels great, and washes beautifully (I used cold water and hung to dry). Although light weight, it is not see-through. I was so happy with the coral color, I also purchased two more in black and white a few days later.

Feels soft!
Color: Black, Size: 4X-Large
The fabric is great, as is the weight, fit, color. It covers the backside and doesn’t bulge around the hip. Would love to see it in several colors!

Really great quality and fit for the price
Color: Navy Blue, Size: Large
These tank tops are beautifully cut, the colors are great, the fabric is stretchy and comfortable and they don’t look at all cheap. A very welcome surprise that they exceeded expectations. I spend the entire summer in slim fit tanks and A-line skirts with a jean jacket or shirt over and ended up buying practically every color because I like them so much - can pair them with much more high end items and they don’t look out of place.

Super soft, nice material and you'll want a few of these!
Color: Black, Size: Medium
I’ve been really happy with this ANRABESS ribbed V-neck tank overall. It fits snug, and the material is soft, stretchy, and lightweight, which makes it perfect for warmer weather or layering it. The ribbed texture and V-neck give it a slightly more polished look than a basic tank, so it’s easy to dress up or keep casual with jeans or shorts. I’ve found it to be comfortable for all-day wear, and it holds its shape well after washing. I really like the wider shoulder material which covers my bra strap well. Fit-wise, it runs pretty true to size, although I could see sizing up if someone prefers a less fitted look. One thing to note is that lighter colors may be a bit more sheer depending on what you wear underneath. Overall, it’s a simple, versatile tank that didn't break my bank so it's worth it. In the winter I'll probably wear it under the majority of my shirts. I'm absolutely planning on ordering more colors.
