Last Vanities: Stories"Reading time is approximately four hours. Remembering time, as for its author, the rest of one's life," said Joseph Brodsky of Fleur Jaeggy's novel, Sweet Days of Displine. Now Jaeggy has come up with seven stories, each at some deep level in dark complicity with the others, all as terse and spare as if etched with a steel tip.

"Reading time is approximately four hours. Remembering time, as for its author, the rest of one's life," said Joseph Brodsky of Fleur Jaeggy's novel, Sweet Days of Displine. Now Jaeggy has come up with seven stories, each at some deep level in dark complicity with the others, all as terse and spare as if etched with a steel tip. A brooding atmosphere of horror, a disturbing and subversive propensity for delirium haunts the violent gestures and chilly irony of these tales. Full of menace, the air they breathe is stirred only by the F hn, the warm west wind of the Alps that inclines otherwise respectable citizens to vent the spleen and angst of life's last vanities.Binding Type: Paperback

Good purchase
Color: Gold, Color: Gold
It matches my decor and it was easy to assemble. I have been using it for the past month and so far it has done what’s it’s supposed to do, look pretty and hold the tissue roll in place. I am sure it will last years.

Good enough

It works but I find it gets pretty dirty on the bottom of it. I’m not sure how but I have to clean it every so often
