The Swiss writer of whom Hermann Hesse famously declared, "If he had a hundred thousand readers, the world would be a better place," Robert Walser (1878-1956) is only now finding an audience among English-speaking readers commensurate with his merits--if not with his self-image. After a wandering, precarious life during which he produced poems, essays, stories, and novels, Walser entered an insane asylum, saying, "I am not here to write, but to be mad." Many of the unpublished works he left were in fact written in an idiosyncratically abbreviated script that was for years dismissed as an impenetrable private cipher. Fourteen texts from these so-called pencil manuscripts are included in this volume--rich evidence that Walser's microscripts, rather than the work of incipient madness, were in actuality the product of desperate genius building a last reserve, and as such, a treasure in modern literature. With a brisk preface and a chronology of Walser's life and work, this collection of fifty translations of short prose pieces covers the middle to later years of the writer's oeuvre. It provides unparalleled insight into Walser's creative process, along with a unique opportunity to experience the unfolding of his rare and eccentric gift. His novels The Robber (Nebraska 2000) and Jakob von Gunten are also available in English translation.Binding Type: Paperback

Not Floresent
The remote control cover fits ideally on the remote for the Apple remote but it’s not fluorescent the color is very dull I didn’t bother sending it back because it’s really not worth it for what I paid for these basically this little remote cover just protects the remote from getting damaged .

I'm impressed! Simple but quite effective, affordable, properly designed
Color: Walnut Wood
I normally don't review items unless I am very impressed or feel I need to review to warn others of a particularly poor product.
In this case I am highly impressed! Great price (compare to others made from plastic), well designed and quality construction.
Simple but quite effective. Quality wood support, smooth sanded and beautifully finished.. The wood support is designed and created to properly support headphones without damage to the headband as a simple hook or peg design might
I have a home recording studio and don't want some cheap shlopck headphone holder to damage my $300 headphones in any way.
This support is very reasonably priced, and offers 2 ways to mount. Included double sided self adhesive or using a screw through the hole at the top of the metal bracket. Screw mounting hardware is included.
The metal bar used is incredibly robust but is well suited aesthetically to complement the wood rest.
I would recommend to my friends or anyone who wants a quality, I expensive, and affection headphones holder. Don't hesitate to purchase, you won't be sorry!

Awesome Quality great for my headphones
Color: Walnut Wood
I recently purchased the Wood Headphone & Headset Wall Mount in Black, and it has truly transformed my workspace! The space-saving design is a game-changer, instantly decluttering my desk and giving it a sleek, organized look.
The curved bearing area is a thoughtful touch, ensuring that my headphone head beam remains in perfect condition without any risk of deformation or dents. The combination of aluminum alloy and wood not only gives it a modern aesthetic but also makes it incredibly sturdy and strong. I was initially skeptical about using double-sided tape, but the 3M tape provided proved to be exceptionally reliable. The mount is securely adhered to my wall, and I can trust that it will never break or fall.
What I love most is its versatility – it accommodates all types of headphones, even the heaviest ones, and I've even used it to hang my handbags and backpacks. It's truly a versatile and practical solution for anyone looking to optimize their workspace. I highly recommend the Wood Headphone & Headset Wall Mount for its durability, functionality, and the aesthetic upgrade it brings to any room!
