Description
The Song of KieuBy: Du Nguyen "An essential book for anyone invested, not only in Vietnamese literature, but the historic power of the national epic and its perennial place in our species' efforts toward self knowledge. Tim Allen's new translation offers clean fluidity while honouring the original's varied rhythms and jagged lyricism. A luminous feat." Ocean Vuong A stunning new translation of the legendary Vietnamese epic poem, now for the first time in Penguin
By: Du Nguyen"An essential book for anyone invested, not only in Vietnamese literature, but the historic power of the national epic...and its perennial place in our species' efforts toward self-knowledge.

A stunning new translation of the legendary Vietnamese epic poem, now for the first time in Penguin Classics
Considered the greatest literary achievement in Vietnamese, The Song of Kieu tells the story of the beautiful Vuong Thuy Kieu, who agrees to a financially profitable marriage in order to save her family from ruinous debts, but is tricked into working in a brothel. Her tragic life involves jealous wives, slavery, war, poverty, and time as a nun. Adapted from a seventeenth-century Chinese novel, Jin Yun Qiao, written by an unknown writer under the pseudonym Qingxin Cairen, author Nguyen Du upended the plot's traditional love story by conveying the social and political upheavals at the end of the 18th century in Vietnam.

They hang easy!
Color: C. Rustic Brown Board & Black Brackets, Number Of Shelves: 4, Size: 23-inch, Color: C. Rustic Brown Board & Black Brackets, Number Of Shelves: 4, Size: 23-inch
I got my shelves well packaged. No defects. I did find it odd that the photos show a third way of hanging them where the brackets are hidden, but it's the only two top shown in the product photo of the hanging options that are shown on the instructions. It's easy enough anyway to hang without any instructions and I chose the second one shown anyway. They're good quality and look nice on my wall. Color is accurate and holds all my stuff the way I'd hoped/imagined. I wanted shelves that didn't stick out too far from the wall and they're a great fit. Super sturdy!

Great product!
Color: G. Black Board & Gold Brackets, Number Of Shelves: 3, Size: 16-inch Mixed, Color: G. Black Board & Gold Brackets, Number Of Shelves: 3, Size: 16-inch Mixed
The feeling of the shelf itself is a little off but it was super easy to put together and looks great! It comes with a mounting guide but I didn’t need it. I didn’t use to wall anchors and just screwed them into the wall and they haven’t been a problem at all!

Avoid the GOLD brackets. The finish is NOT accurate.
Color: G. Black Board & Gold Brackets, Number Of Shelves: 4, Size: 16-inch, Color: G. Black Board & Gold Brackets, Number Of Shelves: 4, Size: 16-inch
I bought the BLACK/GOLD shelves because the ones in the photo seemed to match the drawer pull knobs I bought (shown in photo below). The product arrived neatly packed in a 17x6x4in. box. I can only assume the shelves themselves are great, but I only made it as far as inspecting the metal brackets sitting at the top, they feel heavy duty, which is great, but the product's photo posted in Amazon shows a nice gold finish, and these brackets have a dark mustard paint finish (with a couple blueish speckles sprinkled into it), there's nothing gold/metallic about it. The paint color reminded me of long-gone diaper-changing days. These are getting returned asap.

Great shelves at an even better price
Color: Brown, Size: 15.7in, Color: Brown, Size: 15.7in
These shelves are great quality. Easy to hang and come with all the hardware you need. No matter what type of wall you are hanging them on. Saved me a bunch of space. Gave me a place to place some of my books without having to take up floor space with a bookshelf. Light weight material with a durable quality. Stable for lots of things. Fits my space needs
