To keep shipping costs as low as possible, we recommend placing smaller print book orders whenever practical. Orders that exceed our print partner's U.S. shipping weight limit may be fulfilled from a U.K. facility, resulting in significantly higher shipping charges. If you're purchasing several print books, placing two or more smaller orders will often reduce your shipping costs.
The Neighbor She Cannot Stand — Khaemwaset has lived beside Nebet for eleven years, and in those eleven years she has come to understand exactly three things: Nebet's voice carries through the shared wall as though the wall was built to assist it, Nebet has opinions about the correct way to do everything, and these opinions are delivered without invitation at any hour. Then Nebet's husband does not come home from the quarry, and the wall between them changes character.
