:-) ´The 12" high Restal´ is definitely a very strange thing:-) As for the books, I haven´t read them but people around like them for clever and cunning characters and good story. I am influenced by the film (very good)with Sean Bean and his magnificently played role. Still, I will not read it nor watch it...(spoiler thing)...But I am a silly idiot, you know:-)
Of course you'd love it with Sean Bean, and he's certainly an excellent draw card, being a great actor and very personable. Maybe I'll try the TV series first and see if I feel like starting the books. Apparently it's been renewed for another season (book?).
I've decided not to watch or read as I've heard the books are too dark and sexist for my taste. Maybe the TV series is better but I'll give them both a miss, Sean Bean notwithstanding.
The books are extremely popular. I've heard the world and character building are absolutely wonderful. However, I've also heard it's an extremely dark series - murder, rape, body parts, sexism, incest... which is why I haven't, and most likely won't, read the books. But that's just me..
The shower sized bath was because daily washing was now normal but many places weren't large enough for a bath tub, and some people just hate showers. It would also do for foot soaking or sitz bath treatments.
It's so shallow it wouldn't cover much of a person! I've used a real sitz bath when I was in Switzerland: sort of square but much deeper and with a built-in ledge to sit on. I'm surprised they're not used more often as they'd be easier for old people or invalids to get in and out of. I'm not sure why my friends had one; maybe it was space.
The instructions I've used for sitz baths, you really don't need to be deep in it; the idea is just to have your herbal or contact medicine in connection with the necessary parts for a soak. I've used a regular bath tub but only ran it a few inches deep. I can't remember why, I think I might have been treating razor burn in a delicate area. Anyhow, the Restal bath is obviously not a luxuriating kind of thing, but be able to sit, run some water, sit on the edge and basically give yourself a sponge bath with some of the discomfort of such things-- coldness, mess, and awkward posing-- taken out of the picture. It is suggested for replacing a shower or turning a closet into a half-bath, in the caption. It's not meant to be as good as a proper tub, but in a tiny flat, it might have to do. Think of it as a relative of the Murphy bed.
