In this Booker-shortlisted novel, Indra Sinha's profane, furious, and scathingly funny narrator delivers an unflinching look at what it means to be human. I used to be human once. So I'm told. I don't remember it myself, but people who knew me when I was small say I walked on two feet, just like a human being... Ever since he can remember, Animal has gone on all fours, his back twisted beyond repair by the catastrophic events of "that night" when a burning fog of poison smoke from the local factory blazed out over the town of Khaufpur, and the Apocalypse visited his slums. Now just turned seventeen and well schooled in street work, he lives by his wits, spending his days jamisponding (spying) on town officials and looking after the elderly nun who raised him, Ma Franci. His nights are spent fantasizing about Nisha, the girlfriend of the local resistance leader, and wondering what it must be like to get laid. When Elli Barber, a young American doctor, arrives in Khaufpur to open a free clinic for the still suffering townsfolk--only to find herself struggling to convince them that she isn't there to do the dirty work of the Kampani--Animal gets caught up in a web of intrigues, scams, and plots with the unabashed aim of turning events to his own advantage. Profane, piercingly honest, and scathingly funny, Animal's People illuminates a dark world shot through with flashes of joy and lunacy. A stunning tale of an unforgettable character, it is an unflinching look at what it means to be human: the wounds that never heal and a spirit that will not be quenched.Binding Type: Paperback

Extremely fine shimmer- the air bulb works well for application- Even and controllable
Color: Late Autumn
This is a great way to apply a very fine sparkle. The shimmer is very very finely ground and it sprays out evenly with this air bulb. It does have a lid so there's no chance on it getting everywhere unless you leave the lid off. It also comes with a little plug in the hole so there's two mechanisms there to keep the glitter in the bottle when not in use it's very easy to use and apply and the spray pattern is very even.
I got the golden shimmer which looks great with a tan or if you have warmer undertones in your skin.
It doesn't require any sort of setter or glue + doesn't have any fragrance. It's a small bottle so it doesn't take up a lot of room.

Exceeded My Expectations
Size: 1PCS, Color: Holo Silver
Love love LOVEEE. I feel like a fairy! You only need a short spritz to get a perfect amount of glitter. The sparkles are beautiful, rainbowy and long lasting. I sprayed some on me yesterday and it's still going strong. It dries quickly and really gets those sparkles down. Even if you rub the part of you that's been glittered, it sticks! It doesn't even have a chemically smell, it's kind of flowery? Which I totally didn't expect. However I would recommend spraying yourself outside because the glitter gets all over the house. Unfortunately (or fortunately) my floor will forever be glittered.

Really pretty sparkle!
Size: 1PCS, Color: Gold
I actually bought this product (one can) so I could spray this on my small area of frog ornaments and rocks by our pool. *The product does not state it is intended for craft use. I am very okay with that. Being in Arizona with sun and wind, I wasn’t sure how this would work, turns out what little I did do, (I was afraid my bottle would run out), did a nice job! Half the glitter I sprayed survived a serious thunderstorm we had one night a week or two ago!
I did end up spraying some glitter on my arm, it’s really pretty, subtle, small size glitter, but definitely noticeable outside. You can make your layers as thin or thick as you like. The glitter comes out of the can like hairspray. Very faint smell that will go away within 5-10 minutes, depending on much you use.
I will definitely be purchasing more of this item in more colors in the future.

Must buy!!
Size: 1PCS, Color: Holo Silver, Size: 1PCS, Color: Holo Silver
After carefully looking at the reviews, I ended up purchasing the silver holographic body glitter spray. I immediately sprayed it on my arm, and it blasted my arm full of glitter! I wiped my arm and already dried down! I can’t wait to spray this in my hair and see how long this can last, but I’m definitely buying more with a different variety of colors. Definitely worth the money. I’m obsessed! I will say that if you don’t want glitter everywhere then spray outside.
