The failure of the marriage between Sylvia Plath and Ted Hughes has always been considered from one of two conflicting viewpoints: hers or his. Missing for more than four decades has been a third perspective on the events that brought their marriage to its ill-fated end, the story of another -- the other -- woman: Hughes' mistress Assia Wevill. Like Plath before her, Assia shared her life with Hughes for seven years, until she took her own life and that of their daughter at the age of forty-two, in a manner that nearly replicated Plath's suicide six years earlier. Drawing on previously unavailable documents and private papers, including Assia's diaries and her intimate correspondence with Hughes, this book shows the vital influence Assia exerted on the poet and his work, and the uneasy life they shared under the long shadow of Plath. A Lover of Unreason is the first-ever full-length biography of Assia Wevill. It casts a keen light, and explores the emergence of a singular twentieth-century woman. Three-times divorc (c) career woman, mistress, and single mother, Assia Wevill openly defied the conventions of a censorious pre-feminist Britain and mesmerized men and women alike with her quick-mind and exotic beauty.Binding Type: Paperback

Beautiful design
Simple, functional and beautifully designed, I'm glad I bought it.
(not a five starts just because I thought it was higher, but again, my fault for not reviewing the specs first)

Not Your Average Laptop Stand
One of the things that I always worry about with stands for my computer is how sturdy they will be. If they aren't sturdy, they aren't really worth having. This is super sturdy -- I don't feel any bounce or flex when I work on it. It's also super well made and looks good sitting on my desk. Both of those things make this one of the best stands that I've used. I just wish it were adjustable.

I’m really impressed with these 12-inch Heavy Duty Floating Shelf Brackets!
Size: 12 Inch, Style: Black 6Pack
I recently installed them in my living room to hold some books and decorative items, and they’ve been fantastic. The brackets feel extremely solid and well-made — the 1/5-inch thick iron gives them a sturdy, industrial look and they hold the shelves without any wobbling or sagging. I also love the sleek black finish; it looks modern and stylish, and it really complements my décor.
Installation was straightforward and stress-free because the set comes with screws, anchors, and a lever — everything I needed to get the shelves up securely. The pack of six brackets is great because it gave me enough for multiple shelves and even an extra in case I need it.
The only minor thing to note is that aligning the brackets perfectly requires a bit of patience, but once leveled, they hold like a dream.
Overall, these brackets are a great combination of strength, style, and value. They’ve made my shelves look clean and professional, and I feel confident they’ll last for years. Highly recommend for anyone looking for heavy-duty, attractive shelf support!

High quality look for office
Size: 10 Inch, Style: Black 4Pack, Size: 10 Inch, Style: Black 4Pack
These brackets were exactly what I was looking for. Very solid construction, clean powder-coated finish, and they gave the shelves a modern industrial look without being bulky. Installation was straightforward, and once mounted into studs they felt extremely sturdy.
I used them for floating wood shelves and was honestly impressed with how much weight they can handle without flexing. The black finish also matched perfectly with the rest of the room hardware.
For the price, these are a great value and look far more expensive than they are. Would definitely buy again for future projects.
