Fable for Another Time is one of the most significant and far-reaching literary texts of postwar France. Composed in the tumultuous aftermath of World War II, largely in the Danish prison cell where the author was awaiting extradition to France on charges of high treason, the book offers a unique perspective on the war, the postwar political purges in France, and Louis-Ferdinand C line's own dissident politics. The tale of a man imprisoned and reviled by his own countrymen, the Fable follows its character's decline from virulent hatred to near madness as a result of his violent frustration with the hypocrisy and banality of his fellow human beings. In part because of the story's clear link to his own case--and because of the legal and political difficulties this presented--C line was compelled to push his famously elliptical, brilliantly vitriolic language to new and extraordinary extremes in Fable for Another Time. The resulting linguistic and stylistic innovation make this work stand out as one of the most original and revealing literary undertakings of its time. Louis-Ferdinand C line (1894-1961) was a French writer and physician best known for the novels Journey to the End of the Night (1932) and Death on the Installment Plan (1936). C line was accused of collaboration during World War II and fled France in 1944 to live first in Germany, then in Denmark, where he was imprisoned for over a year; an amnesty in 1951 allowed him to return to France. C line remains anathema to a large segment of French society for his antisemitic writings; at the same time his novels are enormously admired by each new generation.Binding Type: Paperback

Great product
Size: 4 Panels, Color: Beige
We needed something too block off a corner of a room. I looked through a ton of different room divider options on Amazon. I’m glad I did. I’ve had it up for about up about 4 months now, and it’s holding up well. Not too difficult to put together you just got to pay attention and make sure you’re putting it together the right way. The fabric is of good quality. It doesn’t feel flimsy.

Decent room divider for a good price.
Size: 4 Panels, Color: Grey
Honestly I'm pretty happy with the product for the price paid. The instructions were relatively easy to figure out and I put it together myself in an afternoon. Looks good for how cheap it was, and does exactly what I wanted. Double check your measurements before buying, but this worked out great for me.

Great solution if you need some privacy!
Size: 6 Panels, Color: Beige
I had my family and relatives came over last holiday and I needed to provide a make shift rooms for them. I have a finished basement. I purchased 2 sets of VEVOR 6 Panel Room Divider and solved my problem.
The VEVOR 6 Panel Room Divider is a practical and affordable way to create privacy in any space. It’s easy to set up and the folding design makes it simple to adjust or store when not in use. The panels are lightweight but still feel sturdy enough. Assembly needs some extra patience
Overall, a great value option for flexible and convenient room separation. Highly recommended.

Super Value
Size: 4 Panels, Color: Grey, Size: 4 Panels, Color: Grey
While not elegant, these dividers are study, stable, and made of surprisingly high-quality materials for the price. The fabric has a heavy-duty feel and stretches nice and tight with no need to individually Velcro the top and bottom in place as compared to other options. That makes screwing-in one bolt per panel section a bit of a challenge that is best done with two people. However, the results are worth the effort. Otherwise, super quick and simple assembly. The included hex wrench works OK. However, using a 5/32nd inch (4 mm) hex bit in a manual or electric screwdriver dramatically speeds assembly and disassembly. Everything fits nice and neatly back into the divider's shipping box provided one carefully preserves its packing materials and notes how the box was originally packed. Our organization ordered 8 additional 4 panel sets after initial testing of one set of panels indicated that they were an extremely cost-effective alternative to renting "pipe and drape" to support displaying and dividing artwork. We plan to use rubber backed pushpins (also available via Amazon) to affix items to the dividers as needed.
