Tom Kristensen (1893¿1974) schuf mit seinem bis heute bedrohlich funkelnden »Absturz« eine skandinavische Antwort auf die modernen Monumentalromane der 1920er Jahre, von Proust über Joyce und Céline bis zu Musil. Ole Jastrau, ehemals aufstrebender Lyriker, inzwischen Literaturkritiker bei einer liberalen Kopenhagener Tageszeitung, gerät vor unseren Augen aus dem Tritt. Es ist der Nihilismus seiner Zeit, der an ihm nagt, aber noch viel mehr ist es sein maßloser Alkoholkonsum, der ihn in einem unaufhaltsamen Abwärtsstrudel in die Tiefe zieht. Seine Ehe mit Johanne und sein geliebter Sohn Oluf, seine Anstellung bei der Zeitung und seine bürgerliche Stadtwohnung: Nichts hält dem Absturz stand, alles wird für den Rausch aufs Spiel gesetzt. Bei Erscheinen sah sich »Absturz« wütenden Attacken ausgesetzt. Eine »nahezu unerträgliche Schmähschrift« sei es, in der eine »Orgie arroganter Selbsterniedrigung« geschildert werde ¿ gleichzeitig wurde er von Autorenkollegen und der jüngeren Generation gefeiert. Als Schlüsselroman an Kristensens eigenem Leben entlang geschrieben, entwickelt die schnelle, drastische, hellwache Erzählung, die »wahrhaftig ist, ohne wahrheitsgetreu zu sein« (Tom Kristensen), einen ungeheuren Sog. Ulrich Sonnenberg findet in seiner Übersetzung eine bestechend klare Sprache, die durch Alkoholdunst und Zigarrennebel der Hotelbars und Trinkerkneipen Kopenhagens schneidet und mit bitterem Witz den Blick freilegt auf einen Roman, der sowohl ein hellsichtiges Porträt der dekadenten Kopenhagener Gesellschaft als auch eine universelle Studie menschlicher Abhängigkeit und Selbstzerstörung bietet.

Very nice nightstand organizer
Color: Bootlegger Brown, Size: 10.5" x 7" x 1.5"
I was looking for a way to keep all my essentials together at the end of every day, so I had started looking at valet trays. These caught my eye as they're rawhide that are offered in a few different tones. I chose the Large in the Bootlegger Brown tone as it goes with pretty much every decor and suits my style. It's a great shade, and the color is rich. The size is perfect for my needs. Watch and ring at one end, phone on top of slim wallet on the other, and two small sets of keys in the middle. Not crowded, but also no wasted space. The leather is very thick, and the tray keeps quite rigid, despite its size. The edges are turned up just enough to contain your items, but not so much that you feel like you're digging down into something. One minor gripe: I wish the bottom were somehow weighted to keep the tray from "wiggling" when grabbing items out of it. It would make for the perfect tray. I may try to affix something under it that's flat and heavy (but thin), so I'm not too worried about it. Overall I believe this is a fantastic product. I would recommend this for anyone who carries at least a half dozen EDC items as you're sure not to forget anything when preparing to head out for the day.

Good Coin / Keys Tray
Color: Midnight Black, Size: 7.5" x 5.5" x 1.5"
Loved this organizer so much that I ordered one for my Grandson for Christmas. Coins and keys don't make noise when dropped into the tray and it protects the wood of our dresser. Looks very nice too.

Great item, BUT…
Color: Bootlegger Brown, Size: 10.5" x 7" x 1.5", Color: Bootlegger Brown, Size: 10.5" x 7" x 1.5"
Do I love it? Yes. Is it well made? It certainly appears to be. Is the leather thick? Yes, I’d say definitely thick and sturdy. Do I like the color (Bootlegger Brown)? Of course I do, it’s gorgeous. It seems very well made. The corners are secured with black fasteners, which I think are going to better than the buttons in the long run that I’ve seen on others. It’s was this brand, or Hide and Drink for me. I went with these guys because it’s U.S. made, and hopefully American sourced leather. I bought the Large. My concern was that the XL might be too large for my nightstand. I measured it out and everything. However, I was not counting on the length and width to be measured from the end of the pinched corners, so I was a little disappointed about the size of the useable surface area. It’s not a big deal, but I wish that I’d have just spent the extra $5 and got the XL. If I we’re to get another, I definitely go with the XL unless you just want something on the smallish side, but still I suspect that they are larger that what most others are offering. At least these guys give you a choice of options.
