The Great Fire is an extraordinary love story set in the immediate aftermath of the great conflagration of the Second World War. In war-torn Asia and stricken Europe, men and women, still young but veterans of harsh experience, must reinvent their lives and expectations, and learn, from their past, to dream again. Some will fulfill their destinies, others will falter. At the center of the story, a brave and brilliant soldier finds that survival and worldly achievement are not enough. His counterpart, a young girl living in occupied Japan and tending her dying brother, falls in love, and in the process discovers herself. In the looming shadow of world enmities resumed, and of Asia's coming centrality in world affairs, a man and a woman seek to recover self-reliance, balance, and tenderness, struggling to reclaim their humanity. The Great Fire is a story of love in the aftermath of war by purely and simply, one of the greatest writers working in English today. (Michael Cunningham) The Great Fire is the winner of the 2003 National Book Award for Fiction.Binding Type: Paperback

Great construction but poor mounting hardware
They are great once your put them in but mounting them was a huge pain.
The included dry wall anchors are of really bad quality and rips up a huge opening if you have to undo them for whatever reason.
But the more infuriating thing is the screws they come with, which is not quite Philips 2 and easily slips from most standard driver bits. It is very easy to strip these if you are not careful. The small amount of space at the corner almost doesn't allow for easy drill access so you might have to get creative.
Overall good product, but I will highly recommend buying your own set of wall anchors and screws

Sturdy as heck But NOT easy to install
Because of the angles to install the screws, I'm definitely going to have to say NOT easy to install. Simple in concept; maybe if you have paper-thin walls. But if you don't it is a pain to screw those in with the tools provided. On the upside, they do come with a mini leveler. But it's just not a practical way of screwing in the shelf unless you are prepared to spend a surprising amount of time doing it. The shelves themselves are sturdy but that should be expected since it's basically a sheet of metal.
