Allen Ginsberg (1926-1997) kept journals his entire life, beginning at the age of eleven. These first journals detail the inner thoughts of the awkward boy from Paterson, New Jersey, who would become the major poet and spokesperson of the literary phenomenon called the Beat Generation. The Book of Martyrdom and Artifice covers the most important and formative years of Ginsberg's storied life. It was during these years that he met Jack Kerouac and William S. Burroughs, both of whom would become lifelong friends and significant literary figures. Ginsberg's journals -- so candid he insisted they be published only after his death--also document his relationships with such notable figures of Beat lore as Carl Solomon, Lucien Carr, and Herbert Huncke. Conversations with Kerouac, his beloved muse Neal Cassady, and others have been transcribed from Ginsberg's memory, and information will be found here relating to the famous murder of David Kammerer by Carr -- a startlingly violent chapter in Beat prehistory -- which has been credited in New York magazine as "giving birth to the Beat Generation." It was also during this period that he began to recognize his homosexuality, and to think of himself as a poet. Illustrated with photos from Ginsberg's private archive and enhanced by an appendix of over 100 of Ginsberg's earliest poems, The Book of Martyrdom and Artifice is a major literary event.Binding Type: Paperback

Makes everything look so much clean
got these mostly to deal with all the random cords around the house, and they made a bigger difference than I expected.
They’re simple, but they actually do what they’re supposed to. Once everything is tucked inside, it instantly makes the area look way more organized and less cluttered. I’ve been using them for things like power strips and extra cords, and they hide everything really well.
They’re lightweight but still feel sturdy enough, and the lids stay on without being annoying to open.
Pros:
Really helps clean up the look of messy cords
Easy to use, no setup needed
Simple design that blends in
Cons:
Not huge, so larger power strips can be a tight fit
Plastic isn’t super thick
Overall I’d definitely recommend these if you’re trying to make a space look cleaner without doing anything complicated.

Great Space Saver!
I purchased these for our family room charging hub and honestly wish I had known about them sooner. They are sturdy and very kid proof (at least for my kids). I love the push and lift design so little hands can’t just lift it open and they hold a lot yet blend in.

Handy boxes hides wire clutter.
Does what it is meant for. A bit hard to open once the top is fitted.

Clean, secure cable management
These are good cable boxes that close securely. They hide cables very well and look clean and blend into the home well.
