Virginie Despentes's Vernon Subutex trilogy is the zeitgeistiest thing I ever read. Everything about it is contemporary, right down to the fearless woman author who doesn't think of herself as a feminist and gives an impression at least in interviews of habitually killing rapists . . . It] has dupes and assholes and racists and the people they hate and a stunning diversity of internal monologues and trans true love. Like the last decade, it searches for a happy ending that isn't merely personal and can't find it . . . These novels with their depth and detail kick TV's sorry ass. --Nell Zink, Bustle, The Best Books Of The 2010s
From the provocative writer and filmmaker Virginie Despentes comes volume one of her acclaimed trilogy of novels, Vernon Subutex--short-listed for the Man Booker International Prize. But who is Vernon Subutex? Vernon Subutex was once the proprietor of Revolver, an infamous music shop in Paris, where his name was legend throughout Paris. By the 2000s, however, with the arrival of the internet and the decline in CD and vinyl sales, his shop is struggling, like so many others. When it closes, Subutex finds himself with nowhere to go and nothing to do. Before long, his savings are gone, and when the mysterious rock star who had been covering his rent suddenly drops dead of a drug overdose, Subutex finds himself launched on an epic saga of couch-surfing, boozing, and coke-snorting before finally winding up homeless. Just as he resigns himself to life as a panhandler, a throwaway comment he once made on Facebook takes the internet by storm. The word is out: Subutex is lugging around a bunch of VHS tapes shot by that same dead rock musician--his last recordings on this earth. Soon a crowd of wild characters, from screen writers to social media groupies, from porn stars to failed musicians to random misfits, are hot on Vernon's trail . . . but Vernon is none the wiser.Binding Type: Paperback

Surprisingly Amazing!
Color: Walnut, Color: Walnut
I bought this expecting it to be a cheaper product I would use until I bought something better. I was very surprised to see how nice it was! Very solid and non slip surface on the bottom. The wood on it looks great and one of the most awesome things about it is you can manually adjust it to fit your laptop. I have a heavy16 inch MacBook Pro with a case on it and it fits perfectly in this stand, after adjusting it, of course. I ended up buying another one for my work office too. I can’t wait to try other products from this company.

INCREASED DESK SPACE - ORGANIZED
Color: Walnut, Color: Walnut
I just received my new Vertical Laptop Stand by UPERGO! I had no idea that this device could free up so much space on my desk! AND, it looks great, very rich & professional with the solid wood, Walnut dividers. It has solid weight so your laptops won't just tumble or slide away either. The dividers that hold up to 2 laptops will also hold your cell phone. What an clever invention by UPERGO!
I am now able to keep both of my laptops in the same space which frees up substantial workspace for me. The feature that allows me to adjust the width for different sized laptops is GREAT.
I was at wits end how to add ventilation to my laptop as it became so hot. It now runs much, much cooler because the fan/air flow is vertical as opposed to flat on my desk. So many improvements in just one device. Thanks to UPERGO for this fine device which makes my desk look better & so much more functional!
I highly recommend to anyone that spends time with laptops at their desk!

Attractive and Solid Laptop Stand
Color: Walnut, Color: Walnut
The premium quality at this affordable price is a great deal to me. You'd see these sort of designs sold on high-end desk organization companies at expensive ($$) prices. In addition to being aesthetically pleasing, this is a solid laptop stand that was built with the utmost attention to detail. The walnut panels are lined with scratch-resistant felt pads while the aluminum base has a silicone cushion to protect your devices when placing them in. The silicone feet and sturdy weight prevents the stand from moving and tipping over. The adjustability feature is great, especially if you want to accommodate several devices or even books. Per its specifications, I find that it accurately accommodates items ranging from 2cm (0.7in) up to 4cm (1.5in) in width. It fits my 2020 Macbook Air 13" perfectly.
