Ein Mann kehrt zurück in die thüringische Kleinstadt, in der er in den Sechzigern und Siebzigern aufgewachsen ist - ohne Vater (der die Familie gen Westen verlassen hatte), von Mutter und Großmutter streng erzogen. Das Geld war immer knapp, die Entbehrungen, die die Frauen während des Krieges und danach erleiden mussten, wurden dem Jungen oft deutlich vor Augen geführt. Neben starken Bildern, wie dem von der eigenbrötlerischen Elfriede, die ein dunkles Geheimnis umweht, oder der Wut, mit der er sich an die verlogenen Märchen vom Sozialismus, die Versprechungen vom Aufbau eines "besseren Deutschland" und an die Brutalität seiner tumben NVA-Vorgesetzten erinnert, ist sein Gedächtnis voll von einem Universum an Gerüchen - DDR-Gerüchen: Bohnerwachs und Bratkartoffeln, billige Kernseife und das Scheuerpulver Ata, Räuchermännlein zu Weihnachten oder der scharfe Geruch des Mottenpulvers, den ein ausgestopfter Braunbär im Naturkundemuseum verströmte. Dazu gehören auch die Begegnungen mit Sowjetsoldaten: ihre braunen, streng riechenden Uniformen, der Rauch ihrer selbstgedrehten Zigaretten, der sich mit dem Gestank des Treibstoffs ihrer Panzer mischte. Gerüche, untrennbar mit Ordnung, Disziplin und Obrigkeitsfurcht verbunden, olfaktorische Memorabilien an eine versunkene Zeit - wenig geeignet, sie zu verklären. Andreas Montag steuert ein wendiges Boot durch das Meer der Neuerscheinungen, die sich mit dem Leben in der DDR befassen und zu ergründen suchen, "was diese merkwürdigen Ostler wirklich ausmacht. Nennen wir es Stallgeruch. Doch, das passt. Im Guten wie im Bösen."

It's a 7'cord Not a True 8' cord
It's a 7 ft cord the 8 ft they count is the actual plug unit which if you add that totals 8 ft at the very end of the plug unit. Again to clarify the cord only is 7 ft only. The USB ports are not that fast charging I still had to put my fast charger into one of the plug slots not the USB slot and charge my phone off of a plug. The USB would be satisfactory for things that just sit around on the desk. The overall size of the plug unit and the number of plug ports and USB ports is good for my needs for the price that they asked. It came shipped well packaged and on time. I think that overall it's worth the price if you keep the above things in mind that the cord itself is only 7 ft and the USB ports do not fast charge to the same degree that a fast charging USB plug unit would make your device rapid charge. Personally I feel that saying that the cord is 8 ft when it's only 7 ft and trying to include the plug unit into the length of the cord which by name they are totally different things is misleading and a false advertisement on the part of the seller or any seller that does their ad to the customer's disadvantage or misinformation. I was really counting on the cord being a true 8-ft not including the plug unit. That's how I measured according to my needs and it wasn't a true 8 ft cord.

Plug and play
Lots of plugs, USB plugs, and lots of room for plugs. What more could you ask for? This works great. Like everyone else I feel like everything is electronic anymore. Our house was built in the 70’s so our plug to room ratio isn’t so high. These are great to help with all of the items that need power. Great price, design and works great!

Finding a good plug strip without blasted usb ports
It was surprisingly difficult to find a good plug strip that did NOT have USB ports. The last thing I want on a plug strip that I'm going to stuff behind a bunch of monitors are usb port electronics that might die after a few years. I get my usb power ports from an Anker that I can situate on the desk. So, A+ ... this plugstrip has no USB ports! Yahhhh! That and other things I liked about it: * Yippee! A plug strip that doesn't waste space adding USB power ports that I will never use. * Very good plug layout. With all the adapters and misc plug types I needed to plug in, I thought that I might waste too many sockets with covering cords or adapter plastic. But it turned out that I was able to arrange all the plugs and adapters with very little 'wastage'. * Having two orientations in the design made a much bigger difference than I thought it would. Kudos! * And spacing out a few of the plugs also made a huge positive difference, reducing covering wastage from those odd-ball adapters that just like to take up a lot of space. The only thing I can dock this strip for is that I gave it four stars for sturdiness, simply because sometimes a plug would 'catch' on something inside the strip if I didn't push it in exactly straight. Not a big deal really, so I gotta give this guy 5 stars overall. -Matt

Great Floating Shelves
Color: Black, Size: 15.7 inch
I’m really happy with the WOPITUES Floating Shelves. The cube shelf design looks modern and clean, and the black finish adds a nice touch to my bathroom decor. The shelves feel sturdy and well made, and the metal rail is a great feature—it keeps items from sliding off and makes the shelves feel more secure. I installed them over the toilet, and they’re perfect for storing toilet paper, toiletries, and small decorative items without taking up floor space. Installation was straightforward, and all the hardware I needed was included. Once mounted, the shelves stayed level and solid. Overall, these shelves are both functional and stylish. They helped organize my bathroom while also making it look more put together. I would definitely recommend the WOPITUES Floating Shelves to anyone looking for practical storage with a modern look.
