  • On the islands in the Strait of Hormuz, off the southern coast of Iran, there is a common belief that the winds can possess a person, bringing illness and disease.
  • The existence of similar convictions in some African countries suggests that the cult may have been brought to Iran from southeast Africa through the Arab slave trade.
  • This history is rarely spoken about but these winds and the traces they have left on the islands and their inhabitants are the touchstone for Hoda Afshar's Speak The Wind. Through her subtle and perceptive images of the extraordinary landscapes, the people and their rituals, Afshar's beautiful and complex book attempts to picture the wind and its psychic entanglements, to form a visible record of the invisible.

Great shirt! Great price!
Size: 17"-17.5" Neck 34"-35" Sleeve, Color: Medium Blue
These shirts are listed for sale on Amazon with the title "Unlisted by Kenneth Cole men's Slim Fit." To me these shirts aren't "Slim Fit." I have purchased "Slim Fit" shirts in the past from other manufacturers and they were always too tight on me. I'm 6ft and 185 lbs. To me these shirts are more a standard fit and they fit me perfectly. They are made with a combination of cotton and polyester which means they resist wrinkling. And for about $20 each they are a great deal! Kenneth Cole also sells their "Unlisted by Kenneth Cole men's Regular Fit" on Amazon. These shirts should be called "Big and Tall" or "Full Size" fit. This is the first shirt I ordered, and they were too big on me. They are mostly for chubby or muscular men.

The world's most perfect dress pants
I have purchased several of these pairs of pants over the last few years at my job. I wear these pants every shift. They were great. They fit perfect and don't wrinkle or need ironed, that's a huge plus. I work 12 hour shifts in a hospital in a non medical role. So, these are dress pants, not work pants but they wear really well and do not show wear. I have worn other brands that have come apart. These are top of the line and the only pants I wear at my job. They are not not at all hot to wear either. Please, try a pair and I hope you love them.

Excellent Big/Tall Dress Pant
Very comfortable and stretchy pant for a big man. The fabric is breathable but not sheer or feeling like it's going to rip. The button and clasp enclosure made the waist feel extra sturdy. Plenty of stretch to tuck your shirt back in without any obnoxious grunting or groaning. The cut of the legs/thighs is generous with a slight taper towards the bottom cuff. You don't even need to hike them up to sit down comfortably. The pockets are deep enough for any phone or wallet. This is an excellent budget option for guys who don't go to many formal events but still want to look nice.
