In his first novel in more than a decade, award-winning author David Malouf reimagines the pivotal narrative of Homer's Iliad--one of the most famous passages in all of literature. This is the story of the relationship between two grieving men at war: fierce Achilles, who has lost his beloved Patroclus in the siege of Troy; and woeful Priam, whose son Hector killed Patroclus and was in turn savaged by Achilles. A moving tale of suffering, sorrow, and redemption, Ransom is incandescent in its delicate and powerful lyricism and its unstated imperative that we imagine our lives in the glow of fellow feeling.Binding Type: Paperback

Very comfy
Size: X-Large, Color: White
I'm a size US Mens 14 with huge calves. Finding comfortable crew socks can be somewhat difficult.
These are extremely comfortable, very stretchy and soft. Very worth the price.

I use these exclusively for when I'm hiking, cycling and walking ( exercising )

5.7.2019 Update:
I have probably five packs of 3 of these socks. Can't explain it but recent pairs I've been using have lasted longer than previous two packs ( 6 socks )... So I'm going to get some more...
They are my #1 go to sock for cycling, hiking, climbing, walking ( serious, training, speed, distance )...
10.30.19:
I use these exclusively for when I'm hiking, cycling anqd walking ( exeqrcising )...
They are light, comfortable, keep feet dry, cool & comfortable... They don't shift around on feet. They stay put once put on and running, climbing or cycling shoes are put on and laced up or ratched...
I do a lot of hill climbing and also use on terrain where there's lots of long periods ( hours ) going up & hours going down...
They don't appear to be very durable, get holes in toe or holes in heels, but 3 pack is relatively inexpensive so I continue to buy them.
I do not use them for everyday casual wear because they would wear out very quickly compared to other similar sockets...

These socks are just OK. One arrived with a hole (easily sewn up, but kind of bummed about that). I prefer the Under Armour Resistor socks - they have support built into the socks that you actually can feel, and they were same price for 6 pairs!
