Last Car Over the Sagamore BridgePeter Orner zeroes in on the strange ways our memories define us: A woman's husband dies before their divorce is finalized; a man runs for governor of Illinois and loses much more than an election; two brothers play beneath the infamous bridge at Chappaquiddick. Employing the masterful compression for which he has been widely praised, Orner presents a kaleidoscope of individual lives viewed in startling, intimate close up. Whether writing of Geraldo
Peter Orner zeroes in on the strange ways our memories define us: A woman's husband dies before their divorce is finalized; a man runs for governor of Illinois and loses much more than an election; two brothers play beneath the infamous bridge at Chappaquiddick. Employing the masterful compression for which he has been widely praised, Orner presents a kaleidoscope of individual lives viewed in startling, intimate close-up. Whether writing of Geraldo Rivera's attempt to reveal the contents of Al Capone's vault or of a father and daughter trying to outrun a hurricane, Orner illuminates universal themes. In stories that span considerable geographic ground -- from Chicago to Wyoming, from Massachusetts to the Czech Republic -- he writes of the past we can't seem to shake, the losses we can't make up for, and the power of our stories to help us reclaim what we thought was gone forever. "A ravishing collection, full of wisdom, grief, beauty, and especially surprise." -- Anthony Doerr, author of The Shell CollectorsBinding Type: Paperback

Works great for my application.
Size: 6Ft-without USB
This power strip saved me a lot of trouble. I used it to power my Its a Wonderful Life Village, which is composed of 22 buildings each with its own lamp. I went from four power strips to one with this unit. It made the wiring so much neater.

A must have power strip!!!!!! Highly recommend.
Size: 6Ft-without USB
I purchased this during Prime Days in July for $18. There were multiple reasons I purchased this power strip. The list is as follows:
The plug is flat to the electrical socket
The plug rotates, which makes it so easy to plug into any socket and there have been many times I could not use a power strip because of the socket availabilty.
There are sooo many places to plug in anything and they are far enough apart that you can use smart plugs with ease.
The cord I purchased had a 6 foot cord, plenty of room to place the strip behind anything and have room to get easy access.
This strip is at 4,000 Joules, which is very good surge protection.
For the price point, even if it is not on sale, would be worth the purchase. This is a must have in this day and age of power needing devices. P.S. I would have purchased a Amazon strip, but they were “not available” during the Prime days sale.

For anywhere you have a lot of electronics
Size: 6Ft-without USB
I have everything on my desk plugged into it. Sometimes I have to push hard to get the plug in, but the surge protection makes it worth it.
