In haunting prose that will follow you for days to come, Made Holy tells the story of the American family. Love, loss, and addiction entwine in this moving debut collection. Emily Arnason Casey employs the lyric imagination to probe memory and the ever-shifting lens of time as she seeks to make sense of the disease that haunts her maternal family tree and the alchemy of loss and longing.

The lakes of her childhood in Minnesota form the interior landscape of this book, a kind of watery nostalgia for something just beyond her reach. "I know this feeling," she writes. "We travel along the surface of time and then suddenly the layers give way and we are in another year, another body, another place."

Casey's willingness to honestly examine the past and present with contemplative lyricism offers fresh perspective and new understanding. In electric moments that are utterly relatable, she weaves a tale of love and commitment to the truth of her experience despite the incredible desire to keep alive a legacy of secrets. Like the mullein plant she invokes in the final essay, these essays form a kind of "guardian to the lost."

Fine but not great
It fit well and looked ok. However the material was thinner and flimsier than I expected. It was quite wrinkled and I couldn’t iron it well without risking melting it due to the polyester content. After ironing for about an hour on low heat it was passable but it was a lot of work to only get a passable result.

El traje me gusto lo pedí en size 8 y le quedó grande a mi hijo, lo volví a pedir en un size 7 y lo q me entregaron fue una mercansia usada llena de brillo y mal olor, desde q abrí el paquete se veía q esta usada, me parece de muy mal profesionalismo ya q deberían revisar las cosas de devuelven para q después clientes como yo no tengamos q pasar por esto

Definitely Worth It!

Love this set for my little Easter-man (Khaki - Size 6)! I have a husky 5 year old son. ( I was able to hem the pants myself although his pants slipped down a bit before I tightened his belt) Loved the overall quality for the price! Kids play - it was the perfect material to give a good look but not break the bank. I purposely bought a bit large to ensure he’ll be able to wear it longer. I’ll be back for the navy suit.

Exceptional boys suit!

Seriously Great Little Suit! True to Size and Looked So Sharp. I bought this blue suit in a size 12 for my son, and honestly, I was really impressed. You know how sometimes kids' clothes sizing is all over the place? Well, this suit was actually a true size 12, which was a huge relief. It fit him perfectly right out of the box. And the best part? It looked fantastic on him! The blue is a really nice color, and the suit just looked really well-made. He wore it to a 6th Grade graduation and he looked so grown-up and handsome. We got a ton of compliments. If you need a good-looking suit for your son that actually fits, you should definitely check this one out. We were really happy with it!
