Description
The Book of MonelleWhen Marcel Schwob published The Book of Monelle in French in 1894, it immediately became the unofficial bible of the French Symbolist movement, admired by such contemporaries as St phane Mallarm , Alfred Jarry and Andr Gide. A carefully woven assemblage of legends, aphorisms, fairy tales and nihilistic philosophy, it remains a deeply enigmatic and haunting work more than a century later, a gathering of literary and personal ruins written in a style
When Marcel Schwob published The Book of Monelle in French in 1894, it immediately became the unofficial bible of the French Symbolist movement, admired by such contemporaries as St phane Mallarm , Alfred Jarry and Andr Gide. A carefully woven assemblage of legends, aphorisms, fairy tales and nihilistic philosophy, it remains a deeply enigmatic and haunting work more than a century later, a gathering of literary and personal ruins written in a style that evokes both the Brothers Grimm and Friedrich Nietzsche. The Book of Monelle was the result of Schwob's intense emotional suffering over the loss of his love, a "girl of the streets" named Louise, whom he had befriended in 1891 and who succumbed to tuberculosis two years later. Transforming her into the innocent prophet of destruction, Monelle, Schwob tells the stories of her various sisters: girls succumbing to disillusionment, caught between the misleading world of childlike fantasy and the bitter world of reality. This new translation reintroduces a true fin-de-si cle masterpiece into English.A secret influence on generations of writers, from Guillaume Apollinaire and Jorge Luis Borges to Roberto Bola o, Marcel Schwob (1867-1905) was as versed in the street slang of medieval thieves as he was in the poetry of Walt Whitman (whom he translated into French). Paul Val ry and Alfred Jarry both dedicated their first books to him, and he was the uncle of Surrealist photographer Claude Cahun.

I'll Take Three!
I recently purchased the DUMOS Ergonomic Computer Gaming Chair, and I couldn't be happier with my decision! This chair combines comfort, style, and affordability in a way that truly exceeded my expectations. The PU leather lumbar support provides excellent comfort and proper posture, making long gaming or work sessions much more enjoyable.
What really surprised me was the fantastic price—so good that I ended up buying three! I chose two in striking red and one in sleek blue for each person's room, and they all look fantastic. The build quality feels sturdy and durable, and the ergonomic design has already made a noticeable difference in my comfort levels.
If you're looking for a stylish, comfortable, and budget-friendly gaming or office chair, I highly recommend the DUMOS Ergonomic Chair. It’s a great investment in your comfort and style!

excellent quality, Good Support
I got this on sale for $67. The process to assemble it was very straightforward and used an Allen wrench. It was rated as the best item in its category and had five stars. I wouldn't consider it a gaming chair, Although it tries to be one. It feels more like an office chair that was glam up to be a gaming chair. But it does an excellent job at supporting a tall large individual, Excellent Support, Good posture. Worth every penny, But not in the same category as a typical gaming chair. Lack some of the bells and whistles had a typical gaming chair would have, But every bit the money I paid for it. If you want something nicer then you need to buy like a $200+ Gaming chair with the bells and whistles.

Very comfortable with good lower-back support
Most comfortable, well made, easy assembly office-gaming chair (very pleased)!
*I suggest, HOLD-OFF popping the seat onto the upper-cylinder until AFTER assembling the back-rest onto the seat/arm-seat with back-rest as a unit...can then be popped onto the upper gas-cylinder(Much more stable than fighting with chair freely rolling and turning) while attempting to aligning the holes assembling the back-rest.
Afterwards the seat with back-rest assembled can easily be popped onto to the upper-end of the gas-cylinder and we are good to go!
* do pay attention to using the correct bubble-packed bolts for each assembly, as directed
* all the holes align -up very precisely... so if screwing in the bolt(s) and after a couple-turns it gets hard-to-turn, we are 'cross-threading the bolt into the threaded hole...so back-out and realign the bolt as so it threads in very easy.
* the bubble-pack of bolts are clearly labeled so as we easily know which ones go where.
*0ne bubble-packet even includes a spare group just in case we lost one (like out in the grass-lawn)?
* Included a T-handle alien-head wrench (all needed for total assembly) very nice for having around if any re-tightening needed. all speaks Quality!
>>> Been using about a month now...And I REALLY like this office gaming chair
_ very comfortable cushioned well and excellent lower-back support
_ the faux-leather seems to be more thick and durable and stitching is NOT ripping-out (as my previous & more expensive chair had done with it's paper-thin faux leather)
_ easy assembled chair seems very sturdy and solid, (yet light weight), in moving around, (not some wobbly contraption as my previous more expensive chair).
_ a strong Five-Star rating!
