New York Times Book Review Notable Book of 2017

An electrifying first collection from one of the most exciting short story writers of our time

"I can’t recall the last time I laughed this hard at a book. Simultaneously, I’m shocked and scandalized. She’s brilliant, this young woman."—David Sedaris

Ottessa Moshfegh's debut novel Eileen was one of the literary events of 2015. Garlanded with critical acclaim, it was named a book of the year by The Washington Post and the San Francisco Chronicle, nominated for a National Book Critics Circle Award, short-listed for the Man Booker Prize, and won the PEN/Hemingway Award for debut fiction. But as many critics noted, Moshfegh is particularly held in awe for her short stories. Homesick for Another World is the rare case where an author's short story collection is if anything more anticipated than her novel.

And for good reason. There's something eerily unsettling about Ottessa Moshfegh's stories, something almost dangerous, while also being delightful, and even laugh-out-loud funny. Her characters  are all unsteady on their feet in one way or another; they all yearn for connection and betterment, though each in very different ways, but they are often tripped up by their own baser impulses and existential insecurities. Homesick for Another World is a master class in the varieties of self-deception across the gamut of individuals representing the human condition. But part of the unique quality of her voice, the echt Moshfeghian experience, is the way the grotesque and the outrageous are infused with tenderness and compassion.  Moshfegh is our Flannery O'Connor, and Homesick for Another World is her Everything That Rises Must Converge or A Good Man is Hard to Find. The flesh is weak; the timber is crooked; people are cruel to each other, and stupid, and hurtful. But beauty comes from strange sources. And the dark energy surging through these stories is powerfully invigorating. We're in the hands of an author with a big mind, a big heart, blazing chops, and a political acuity that is needle-sharp. The needle hits the vein before we even feel the prick.

Very good quality at a low price
Size: 27 Inch
This monitor relaced an expensive Dell monitor that failed after many years. It is the central unit in my 3-monitor office computer setup, and it has done a fine job.

Smooth Gameplay, Stunning Display
Size: 27
I’m an avid gamer and recently switched to PC. After spending thousands on my setup, I couldn’t justify paying even more for big-name monitors but honestly, this should be one. It’s absolutely perfect. The colors are vibrant, gameplay is incredibly smooth, and the FPS performance is exactly what you want for gaming, no lag, no issues, just a seamless experience whether I’m playing for a short session or for hours. The size is also ideal for smaller desks, and the curve is just right, I don’t have to move my head around to see everything, which makes a big difference during longer gaming sessions. It’s super lightweight and very easy to set up. I can play for hours comfortably without eye strain, even with the brightness. One thing to note: there are no built-in speakers, so keep that in mind if that’s something you need. Overall, I’m beyond impressed, I already want to buy three more.

Great monitor for your work desk.
Size: 27 Inch
I'm loving my 27" monitor that I use for work as it makes it so much easier to see what I'm doing as the enlarged image is clear and defined. The controls on the back of the monitor are super easy to access and operate via the toggle and on/off button, and there are a few modes to choose from. I really liked the VESA mounting option using an arm that was purchased separately, and the holes in the back of the monitor fit perfect. Super easy to connect to your computer, and the HDMI connector deliver a high quality picture on the screen with a great refresh rate for someone in need of a work monitor.

THE PORTAL CABLE OF DESTINY
Style: 1-Pack, Size: 6 Feet
Behold, traveler of pixels and slayer of tangled cords, for I bring you tidings of a humble cable that rose from the depths of “Amazon Basics” and ascended into the realm of LEGENDS. I speak, of course, of the Amazon Basics DisplayPort to HDMI Cable, a unidirectional conduit forged for 4K @ 30Hz glory, capable of translating your GPU’s cryptic DisplayPort hieroglyphs into the universal language of HDMI with the grace of a diplomat and the precision of a laser-guided falcon. ⚡ The Summoning Once unboxed, the cable practically hummed with untapped potential. Thick enough to feel sturdy, yet flexible enough to bend like a willow in a gentle breeze, it whispered: “Connect me… and behold your destiny.” I obliged. 🌌 The Awakening of Pixels Upon insertion of the DisplayPort end into my tower—a sharp, satisfying click, like Excalibur finding the stone—and the HDMI end into my monitor, reality shimmered. My second screen flickered to life. Suddenly, spreadsheets became scenic vistas. YouTube videos transformed into cinematic marvels. The 1080p realm bowed before the cable’s serene stability. And 4K at 30Hz? A smooth, noble glide worthy of a productivity paladin. No spark. No noise. No handshake issues. Just a cable doing exactly what it was put on this Earth to do—connect universes. 🔥 Uni-Directional Power, Baby Many a mortal has fallen by forgetting the ancient rule: DisplayPort → HDMI ONLY. Not the other way. Never the other way. This cable knows who it is. This cable has boundaries. This cable has self-respect. 🛡️ Reliability of a Trusted Companion Weeks of use. Dozens of unplug/replug rituals. A tumble from my desk. Did it falter? Nay. Its signal was steady. Its mission: unwavering. Its performance: chef's kiss of electronic harmony. ⭐ Final Verdict: 5/5 If you require a DP-to-HDMI bridge that performs without drama, without ego, and without catching fire—this is your hero. Not flashy. Not overpriced. Just reliable, battle-ready, and epically competent. Buy it. Wield it. And watch your displays obey.
