Winner of France's 2004 Prix de Flore for his memoir The Romanian: Story of an Obsession, Bruce Benderson has gained international respect for his controversial opinions and original take on contemporary society. In this collection of essays, Benderson directs his exceptional powers of observation toward some of the most debated, as well as some of the most neglected, issues of our day. In Sex and Isolation, readers will encounter eccentric street people, Latin American literary geniuses, a French cabaret owner, a transvestite performer, and many other unusual characters; they'll visit subcultures rarely described in writing and be treated to Benderson's iconoclastic opinions about culture in former and contemporary urban society. Whether proposing new theories about the relationship between art, entertainment, and sex, analyzing the rise of the Internet and the disappearance of public space, or considering how religion and sexual identity interact, each essay demonstrates sharp wit, surprising insight and some startling intellectual positions. This is the first American volume of Benderson's collected essays, featuring both new work and some of his best-known writings, including his famous essay Toward the New Degeneracy.Binding Type: Paperback

Sturdy and Functional
Color: White, Size: 3 layer
Sturdy and well-made. The drawers glide easily. Some other reviewers complained that the handles are hard to pull open, but I did not have that problem at all. I actually bought it to store my hair barrettes so that they stay nice. With the different compartments shapes, I was able to find places for thin, long barrettes, large bow barrettes, and long headbands. It is just perfect.

good quality and weight
Color: Black
I used mine as a place to put misc papers and notes for three employees in our office. They work great. They are not flimsy at all and have a nice appearance. No sharp corners and no defects. They are just as I hoped they would be

Color: Black
Trays work great at my desk. I use them for my envelopes, items needing signatures and another for pending pickup. They are sturdy and will last forever.
