Best Nonfiction of 2012: The Wall Street Journal, The Plain Dealer
In the much-anticipated follow-up to her Pulitzer Prize-winning Gulag, acclaimed journalist Anne Applebaum delivers a groundbreaking history of how Communism took over Eastern Europe after World War II and transformed in frightening fashion the individuals who came under its sway. Iron Curtain describes how, spurred by Stalin and his secret police, the Communist regimes of Eastern Europe were created and what daily life was like once they were complete. Drawing on newly opened East European archives, interviews, and personal accounts translated for the first time, Applebaum portrays in chilling detail the dilemmas faced by millions of individuals trying to adjust to a way of life that challenged their every belief and took away everything they had accumulated. As a result the Soviet Bloc became a lost civilization, one whose cruelty, paranoia, bizarre morality, and strange aesthetics Applebaum captures in these electrifying pages.

Perfect solution
Size: 20FT, Color: White
Incredible value - solves our phone charging needs without bulky chargers attached to traditional extension cords… aesthetically superior with outlet cover and flat cord that we plan to conceal between tiles. A+

Great Extension Cord for hard to reach places.
Size: 5FT, Color: White
Wasn't sure if I would like this or not but I really do. We have the stand up version (not by same vendor) but really liking this smaller version that I was able to stand on edge and not take up valuable room on my side table. We used it for the outlet under the bed to the bedside table. Has enough power to run multiple items with no issues. I like that it comes with USB, C, 2 prong, 3 prong. I didn't use the included cover but that was because we had something else plugged into the other socket.

Decent
Size: 20FT, Color: White
I needed a heat gun to make it a little more pliant to get the kinks out but otherwise I loved it
