In 1933, Chatto & Windus agreed to publish Samuel Beckett's More Pricks Than Kicks, a collection of ten interrelated stories, which was his first published work of fiction. At his editor's request, Beckett penned an additional story, "Echo's Bones", to serve as the final piece. However, he had already killed off the protagonist, Belacqua, and had to resurrect them from the dead. Despite Beckett's efforts, the story was turned down by his editor and excluded from the collection, as it was considered too imaginatively playful, too allusive, and too undisciplined--qualities now recognized as quintessentially Beckett. As a result, "Echo's Bones" (not to be confused with the poem and collection of poems of the same title) remained unpublished--until now, eight decades later. It begins with the antihero returned to life, sitting on the cemetery fence and smoking cigars. There, he encounters a macabre triumvirate: a prostitute; an infertile baron who requests Belacqua's assistance in securing the future of his estate; and a groundskeeper who attempts to rob Belacqua's grave. The phantasmagoric events that ensure encapsulate Beckett's burgeoning preoccupation with the tragicomedy of existence that suffuses his later writings. In the introduction and critical notes, Mark Nixon situates this little-known text in terms of its biographical context, its textual references, its Joycean influences, and he examines how it is a vital link in the evolution of Beckett's early work. Beckett confessed that he included "all I knew" in the story, harnessing an immense range of subjects, from science and philosophy to religion and literature, combining fairy tales, gothic dreams, and classical myth. The posthumous publication of Echo's Bones marks the unexpected and highly exciting return of a literary legend.Binding Type: Paperback

Not perfect, but good enough for daily use
Style: Qi2 Charging Mount
Well made and very strong magnet. Make sure you tighten it completely or it will fall off. The tightening screws are not intuitive, but after some confusion you can figure it out. Works as intended and charging is as fast as your phone allows.

Fast charger
Style: Qi2 Charging Mount
Simple to install. Holds tightly and has enough adjustment flexibility to get your phone positioned the way you want it. Fast charger and mag holds tightly. Only downside is where to plug in the charging cord. But that would be a problem with any external charger.

charger works, not the adhesive on the ring.
Style: Qi2 Charging Mount
The metal ring adhesive was destroyed by the unit's heat in a few weeks. Do not buy it if you need the adhesive ring to hold the phone. The blinking light ring is annoying - why is it needed.
