*Shortlisted for the Miles Franklin Literary Award 2020*
Elizabeth posts a 'room for rent' notice
in Trevor's bookshop and is caught off-guard when Trevor answers the ad himself. She expected a young student not a middle-aged bookseller whose
marriage has fallen apart. But Trevor is attracted to Elizabeth's house because
of the empty shed in her backyard, the perfect space for him to revive the
artistic career he abandoned years earlier. The face-blind, EH Holden-driving
Elizabeth is a solitary and feisty book editor, and she accepts him, on
probation...
Miles Franklin finalist Philip Salom has a
gift for depicting the inner states of his characters with empathy and insight.
In this poignant yet upbeat novel the past keeps returning in the most
unexpected ways. Elizabeth is at the beck and call of her ageing mother, and
the associated memories of her childhood in a Rajneesh community. Trevor's
Polish father disappeared when Trevor was fifteen, and his mother died not
knowing whether he was dead or alive. The authorities have declared him dead,
but is he?
The
Returns
is a story about the eccentricities, failings and small triumphs that humans
are capable of, a novel that pokes fun at literary and artistic pretensions,
while celebrating the expansiveness of art, kindness and friendship.
'Philip Salom...dissects the vulnerabilities of the human condition (loneliness, fear of intimacy, powerlessness, guilt), the power of the past to haunt us, the fear of the future to mire us, and the redemptive effects of love and acceptance.' — Miles Franklin Award Judges on Waiting<

Absorbs into the skin well and no irritation so far
I bought this Cyperus Rotundus oil to try out, and the 1.85 oz bottle is a good size for me. The oil has a light botanical scent that is pleasant and not too strong. I have applied it a few times and found that it is very easy to use with the included dropper. It absorbs into the skin well and I have noticed no irritation at all, which is important for my daily routine.
The bottle arrived quickly and was packaged securely so there were no leaks. It is a practical addition to my shelf, and the glass container feels solid. This product does exactly what it says on the label and provides a straightforward way to use a natural oil. It is a functional and simple purchase that meets my needs perfectly.

Smooth skin without the post-shave itch
I’ve always had issues with my skin feeling super irritated after I shave my legs, so I started applying this Cyperus Rotundus oil right after hopping out of the shower. The quality of the blend is impressive—it’s got jojoba and almond oil too, so it feels very nourishing rather than just sitting on top of the skin. It absorbs quickly enough that I can put on my leggings and head to the gym without feeling like a greaseball.
The functionality as a hair inhibitor is a nice bonus. I’ve noticed the hair on my shins seems to be coming back a bit softer and less stubbly than before. For a 55 ml bottle, the value for money is solid since you only need a few drops to cover a large area. It’s a great find for anyone who deals with that annoying sandpaper feeling a day after waxing. My roommate even started using it on her arms because it’s fragrance-free and doesn't mess with her perfume.

Lightweight oil that fits into a simple routine
I started using this oil as part of my regular skincare routine, mainly applying it to areas like my arms and face after showering. The texture feels light and spreads easily without leaving a heavy residue. I noticed it absorbs fairly quickly, which makes it convenient for daily use. It also has a mild scent that is not overwhelming. I like that it includes plant based ingredients, and it leaves my skin feeling soft after application.

Amazing!!
Scent: Unscented, Size: 1.85 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Scent: Unscented, Size: 1.85 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Amazing product! I have a hormone imbalance and am prone to ingrown hairs, pustules, and very coarse hair on my chin, jawline, and neck. Since using this product, my ingrown hairs have decreased significantly. It works well for me as someone with PCOS. It has a very comfortable scent, but it is very light. I don’t notice the smell after I rub it in. It really works and should consistently use.

soft finish for upper lip and chin area
I pay close attention to fine facial hair, especially around my upper lip and chin area. Under strong lighting, those small hairs can appear more visible, so I have been looking for a gentle way to care for this area without anything harsh or overly complicated. At night, after cleansing my face and completing my basic skincare, I apply this oil as the final step. It feels like a light finishing layer over the skin. I use a very small amount, about one or two drops, warm it between my fingertips, then gently press it onto the upper lip and chin area. There is no stinging sensation, and the scent is very mild, which makes the application feel calm and comfortable. The texture feels lighter than expected. It spreads smoothly and settles quickly without leaving a heavy or greasy film. My skin type leans slightly combination, and in my case it sits well without making the T zone feel overly coated. Even when I follow with a light moisturizer, it layers without pilling and still feels breathable on the skin. After using it regularly every three days in the evening, the change I notice is mainly visual. The fine facial hair looks less pronounced under bright lighting, especially around the upper lip area. The skin surface also appears more even, and when I touch it, it feels smoother and less uneven in texture. These changes feel gradual rather than sudden, becoming more noticeable over time. From a makeup perspective in the morning, my base applies more evenly after cleansing. Foundation tends to sit more smoothly around the chin and upper lip area, without clinging to texture. During humid days, the skin can feel slightly more active in oil balance, but the overall finish still looks even and natural once makeup is applied.
