In The Museum of Useless Efforts Cristina Peri Rossi renders familiar, everyday situations uncanny through lyrical reinterpretations; at the same time, she somehow makes the uncanny appear quite ordinary. Crafting peculiar--and sometimes claustrophobically small--worlds, Peri Rossi explores the universal themes of desire, violence, and truth and the simultaneous and contradictory human capacities to repress and resist, speak and silence, desire and ignore. In these tales an insomniac is tormented by a stubborn lamb that refuses to jump over the fence; the momentary hesitation of a man on a crowded subway staircase who forgets whether he was going up or down unleashes pandemonium; and a patient receives a frantic call from his psychoanalyst, distraught that his wife has taken a new lover.Binding Type: Paperback

Arrived earlier than expected and the product seems intact.
It came quicker than I was expecting and it looks like all the pills are there. I only got it yesterday, so I don't know how effective the gum pills are.

Very good for breath but caused some sour mouth
I have dry mouth which makes me prone to bad breath. I’ve experimented with chewing these before bed (after brushing) or in the morning (also after brushing). I tested my breath using a cloth mask and also did “blank” tests on days when I did not use the product. Chewing before bed greatly reduced morning breath but left me with some sour mouth, which makes me worry a bit about tooth decay. I’ve switched to taking in the morning and have been happy with the results.

Lips & mouth sore?
Mouth and lips became sensitive and sore after using this product 2x per day for 3 days. Maybe I’m allergic to one of the ingredients? Don’t know. It’s day 3 of soreness and waiting for it to subside.

Doesn’t work
I’ve tried to for three weeks and I’ve tested and it does t work. I can taste this mint in my mouth and it still smells funky. I’ve had customers and employees tell me my breath smells. I don’t drink coffeee and I brush my teeth for 10mins straight every morning and night and I also use mouth wash and I use three tabs throughout the day and it does nothing for me.
