Irreverently funny and surprisingly moving, All Passion Spent is the story of a woman who discovers who she is just before it is too late. After the death of elder statesman Lord Slane--a former prime minister of Great Britain and viceroy of India--everyone assumes that his eighty-eight-year-old widow will slowly fade away in her grief, remaining as proper, decorative, and dutiful as she has been her entire married life. But the deceptively gentle Lady Slane has other ideas. First she defies the patronizing meddling of her children and escapes to a rented house in Hampstead. There, to her offspring's utter amazement, she revels in her new freedom, recalls her youthful ambitions, and gathers some very unsuitable companions--who reveal to her just how much she had sacrificed under the pressure of others' expectations.Binding Type: Paperback

Good quality desk for the money
Color: White, Size: 40inch without Power Outlet
Overall this is nice little desk, cute, sturdy, and relatively easy to put together by myself. I took one star off because the bottoms of the desk drawers was missing. I contacted the seller and initially got a pretty quick response that the manufacturer would send replacement pieces and provide the shipping tracking information from the warehouse as soon as they had it. Then a few weeks went by without any word and I couldn't seem to contact anyone again (every link came up broken) so I thought I was essentially ghosted. But then they did contact me with the tracking information and eventually sent the replacement drawer flats.
So it took almost two months to resolve but I did get the missing pieces and overall I'm pretty happy with this desk as it was exactly what I wanted for my small home office.

Not a sturdy construction
Color: White, Size: 40inch without Power Outlet
I was excited about this purchase until I tried to assemble it. I bought this desk because i liked the design and the size. It also had great reviews as a sturdy desk. One of the joints fell apart. Parts of the desk have lock in screws wile other joints have these smaller locks that don't really work. I didn't return it because it's to heavy for me to re-box. I'm 66. I'm really disappointed. I wish furniture came already assembled. Hard to find these days. I guess I'll go back to purchasing real wood items from Facebook Market Place and thrift stores.
