Joyce Carol Oates is renowned for her rare ability to "illuminate the mind's most disturbing corners" (Seattle Times). That genius is on full display in her new collection of seven feverishly unsettling works, DIS MEM BER and Other Stories of Mystery and Suspense. In the title story, a precocious eleven-year-old named Jill is in thrall to an older male relative, the mysterious, attractive black sheep of the family. Without telling her parents Jill climbs into his sky-blue Chevy to be driven to an uncertain, and unforgettable, fate. In "The Drowned Girl," a university transfer student becomes increasingly obsessed with the drowning/murder of another female student, as her own sense of self begins to deteriorate. In "Great Blue Heron," a recent widow grieves inside the confines of her lakefront home and fantasizes about transforming into that great flying predator--unerring and pitiless in the hunt. And in the final story, "Welcome to Friendly Skies," a trusting group of bird-watchers is borne to a remote part of the globe, to a harrowing fate. At the heart of this meticulously crafted, deeply disquieting collection are girls and women confronting the danger around them, and the danger hidden inside their turbulent selves.Binding Type: Hardcover

Premium Quality Floating Shelves That Exceeded Expectations
Color: Golden Oak - Light Woodgrain, Number Of Shelves: Pack of 2, Size: 30 inch, Color: Golden Oak - Light Woodgrain, Number Of Shelves: Pack of 2, Size: 30 inch
These floating shelves are absolutely excellent quality. Everything from the packaging to the final product was top notch. The shelves arrived extremely well protected, and you could immediately tell the company takes pride in their product. The finish and craftsmanship are beautiful, the hardware feels solid, and installation was straightforward. Once mounted, they looked even better than expected and feel very sturdy. The golden oak finish adds a clean, modern, high end look to the room. Highly recommend if you’re looking for floating shelves that actually look and feel premium.

Clean Aesthetic, Limited Adjustment on Brackets
Color: Natural Pine - Satin Clear Coat Finish, Number Of Shelves: Pack of 2, Size: 16 inch
These shelves look really nice once installed—the natural wood finish gives a clean, high-end look that fits well with pretty much any space. Installation was straightforward and didn’t take much time, which I appreciated.
My only downside is the bracket design. I wish it had some kind of micro-adjustment option after drilling, because if your holes aren’t perfectly aligned the first time, it can be a bit frustrating to get everything level.
Overall though, still a solid product—sturdy, good quality, and definitely adds a nice aesthetic to the wall.

Finally, great shelves!
Color: Walnut - Warm Brown Woodgrain, Number Of Shelves: Pack of 4, Size: 30 inch
Having tried several shelves, this is by far the best product we have received. These shelves are real wood, well cut and prepared, with very easy installation and are quite stable. They look wonderful in the bedroom we purchased them for, and we like them so much that we have just order another set for another room. These shelves are well worth every penny, and came with a beautiful thank you card from the small business from whom we purchased them...we thank them!

Beautiful floating shelves. Worth the price.
Color: Honey Oak - Warm Amber Tone, Number Of Shelves: Pack of 2, Size: 12 inch, Color: Honey Oak - Warm Amber Tone, Number Of Shelves: Pack of 2, Size: 12 inch
Love these shelves. Hanging them was incredibly simple. They came with a level to really help ensure they were straight. Directions were precise and easy to understand. Took me longer to decide where and how I wanted to place them than it did to hang them. Literally took me 5 minutes to actually hang both shelves. They are smooth, easy to dust and look amazing in all lighting. They are packaged well so I had no missing pieces and no damage. Super strong hold and I love that the bottom of each shelf has a screw to secure the bracket to the shelf so they don't fall. Where I live, that is a major plus because we have a train that comes through regularly and they haven't loosened a bit. Super pleased with this product.
