Spiritualism in the Age of Sherlock Holmes & Edgar Allan Poe

A woman in a black veil convenes a séance. A magician places a volunteer into a trance. A fortune-teller leans over a crystal ball. These images are deeply familiar — because our modern language, imagery, and practice of magic borrows heavily from the Victorians. But the spiritual, cultural, and historical foundations beneath them remain largely unexplored.

Spirits, Seers & Séances by Steele Alexandra Douris pulls back the curtain on the Victorian occult revival — revealing what drove an entire era to embrace mediumship, hypnotism, and fortune-telling in the age of Jack the Ripper, Jane Eyre, and Sherlock Holmes.

Love this sink organizer
This fits really well alongside our sink. Keeps the soap containers off the counter so the water drains off and keeps things much neater. When the tray is full, simply pour the water out, rinse, and put back.

Missing Dividers
Color: Black, Size: 9.4*4.1*5IN
Disappointed it was missing the adjustable dividers. Not great to hold dishwashing brushes. They slip right threw the side.

Sturdy. Built to last. It solves all the problems my old organizer had. Very satisfied.
Review for ARTLEO Kitchen Sink Caddy with Super Water Absorbent Diatomite Stone Sink Tray, Fast Drying Sink Organizer with High Dish Brush Holder Sponge Holder for Kitchen Sink, Stainless Steel This appears to be a sturdy organizer of stainless steel painted with a good amount of black protective paint. I ordered it to replace an inferior organizer of the same material (made by a different company altogether). This one solves the problems I had with my previous organizer which had begun to rust and break apart after six months of use. The narrow steel bars on the bottom shelf of this new organizer are supported by wider steel flats in the frame that will prevent them from breaking off the frame. (My old organizer bars broke because they were barely welded onto the frame and the repeated "pushing down" of my soap pump-bottle eventually broke them apart from the frame). The pads that prevent it from sliding across my counter in big waves (we live and travel on a boat) are secured around the steel legs as opposed to just being glued onto the bottom (like the pads of my previous organizer were, which fell off). There is no metal hanging over onto the sink edge to cause rust (like the metal that had caused rust with my old organizer.) The dish-brush holder can fit on the inside of the frame or it can hang on the outside of the organizer, which is nice because it makes more room if you have many tools that you like to use at the sink. And it can be compact if you don't. Be cautious not to remove the hanging part (dish-brush holder) too often because repeated wear can cause the paint to rub off and it could begin to rust. The "Water Absorbent Diatomite Stone" is new to me but it seems to be working just fine. I assume I will have to clean out the ridges of it as gunk forms there, but that would be the case with any sink organizer tray. I am very satisfied with this organizer, it is robust and it solves all the problems I had with my previous one. The price is on the higher side of similar organizers, currently priced at $23.99. All the best, Mrs. dr

Good quality,easy assembly, nice size
Color: Rustic Brown + Black
Perfect size exactly what I was looking for. Holds quiet a few bottles. Even has wine glass holders. I can put an ice bow on it and make cocktails on the top and wheel the drinks to me guest. Matches my decor perfectly. I put it together myself, very easy instructions and sturdy.
