De langverwachte nieuwe roman van Joost de Vries, een hoogtepunt in zijn oeuvre.De jaren dertig van de vorige eeuw. James Welmoed ontmoet Elizabeth van Elzenburg. Hij is een sociaal ambitieuze ambtenaar, geslepen, schijnbaar stoïcijns. Zij is een schrijver in de dop, uitbundig, avontuurlijk, onverslaanbaar bijdehand. Niets hebben ze met elkaar gemeen – behalve dan dat ze niet kunnen ophouden aan elkaar te denken.
Wat volgt is een affaire die door de decennia brandt en zich in geheime kamers afspeelt, terwijl buiten de wereld halsoverkop verandert. Van het koloniale Bandoeng naar Londen tijdens de Blitz, en van het naoorlogse Den Haag tot het revolutionaire Caïro: de twee geliefden ervaren verleiding en afscheid, schaamte, succes, ijdelheid, liefde en verraad – en toch weer liefde.
Hogere machten is een daverend meeslepende vertelling, een liefdesroman zoals je ze zelden nog tegenkomt, van de met de Gouden Boekenuil en Frans Kellendonkprijs bekroonde Joost de Vries.
Joost de Vries (1983) is adjunct-hoofdredacteur van De Groene Amsterdammeren auteur van de romans Clausewitz, De republiek, Vechtmemoires, Oude meesters en meest recent Rustig aan, tijger.

Cute and Comfortable
Size: 10, Color: Black
This is my second pair. I bought the sand color at my local Macy's. I got their last pair. I have issues with back pain and ankle swelling and pain. These are so comfortable I had to get them in Black. The adjustable straps are great. My feet are a little bit wider because of the swelling issues. So if you have very narrow feet these might be a little big. You might want to go down a half a size. But otherwise I wear a size 10 and they fit perfectly. I don't think the picture does the color justice. The black almost looks like velvet, it's very deep and rich. I wore them out today for the first time and got lots of compliments. The footbed is very comfortable with the memory foam. Lots of support. I noticed my back and ankle pain is much better wearing these. I've never owned UGG before. If these hold up really well and continue to stay comfortable, I will be purchasing other styles for fall and winter.

My new favorite summer sandal!
Size: 8.5, Color: Bay Fog
I am loving these shoes so far this summer! The color is so cute, perfect for a light summer palette. It's the perfect light purple that doesn't make me look pale or washed out. For reference, I have fair to light neutral skin tone. They are SO comfortable - a little too comfortable for a shoe, it's more comfortable than my ugg slippers! They do take a second to put on as you have to either force your ankle in without unstrapping the back - don't judge me - or undo them. Thankfully they have a strap to help get them on easily. I love these shoes. I am a medium width, but I think these have some wiggle room since both the straps are velcro and adjustable somewhat. They are easy to walk in, hold onto the foot, have been more balanced than some others I have had in this platform style, and are very cushioned to walk in. Slight arch support to me but I have somewhat high arches so if you are more flat footed or standard arch these will give you even better support. Really impressed with these. They are more casual but work with many different outfits from sundresses to jeans. For me, these were a great buy and I will be wearing them all summer.

Style, Comfort
Size: 9, Color: Sand
If I could give a Ten Star review, I would. Hands down the most comfortable pair of sandals I have ever owned.
I wore them 16 days straight while touring Italy. Comfortable and goes with all of your outfits. They pack well in a suitcase too. Light weight.
