In The Museum of Useless Efforts Cristina Peri Rossi renders familiar, everyday situations uncanny through lyrical reinterpretations; at the same time, she somehow makes the uncanny appear quite ordinary. Crafting peculiar--and sometimes claustrophobically small--worlds, Peri Rossi explores the universal themes of desire, violence, and truth and the simultaneous and contradictory human capacities to repress and resist, speak and silence, desire and ignore. In these tales an insomniac is tormented by a stubborn lamb that refuses to jump over the fence; the momentary hesitation of a man on a crowded subway staircase who forgets whether he was going up or down unleashes pandemonium; and a patient receives a frantic call from his psychoanalyst, distraught that his wife has taken a new lover.Binding Type: Paperback

Is not square when in the locked open position.
Size: 24 Inch, Size: 24 Inch
Purchased 2 sets of these to make a folding wing on my workbench. Didn’t expect great quality but did expect 90 degrees. Installed and the end of my 27” wing is 25mm higher than the fixed end. Measured bracket and hypotenuse and ran some quick cosine to discover the bracket is actually 91.286degrees. There is zero adjustment capability on these. Buyer beware

You'll flip over the added countertop!
Good product, seems well made. Installation was simple enough. It gives us a little extra counter space when needed. The only issue is it blocks the entry a little when flipped up in our RV. Just look before you step in.
