" N]o other writer tells better stories about the perpetual, the unwinnable, battle between narrative and truth." --The New York Times Book Review

The Crime of Sheila McGough is Janet Malcolm's brilliant expos of miscarriage of justice in the case of Sheila McGough, a disbarred lawyer recently released from prison. McGough had served 2 1/2 years for collaborating with a client in his fraud, but insisted that she didn't commit any of the 14 felonies she was convicted.

An astonishingly persuasive condemnation of the cupidity of American law and its preference for convincing narrative rather than the truth, this is also a story with an unconventional heroine. McGough is a zealous defense lawyer duped by a white-collar con man; a woman who lives, at the age of 54, with her parents; a journalistic subject who frustrates her interviewer with her maddening literal-mindedness. Spirited, illuminating, delightfully detailed, The Crime of Sheila McGough is both a dazzling work of journalism and a searching meditation on character and the law.

W Monitor Stand
I’m using this on a Gigabyte M28U, and it works really well for keeping my headset off the desk and making my setup look clean. The mount itself is made of plastic and holds the headset securely with no issues once installed. That said, this is a pretty specific fit situation for this monitor. The top of the M28U just barely fits the mount, and the slight curve at the top makes installation a bit more difficult than expected. The adhesive strips appear strong, but I had to hold it in place for about 5–10 minutes in the area where it wasn’t fully sticking so it could properly bond to the curved surface. Also, I’m not totally sure if it’s just this monitor, but once the headset is on the mount, it leans slightly toward the side you place it on. It’s not a dealbreaker, but it’s something I noticed depending on how the weight is distributed. My only suggestion is that it might be better if the mount was made from a slightly flexible metal or material so it could gently bend and better conform to curved monitor tops. That would make installation easier on monitors like this. Other than that, no complaints. Will update if it fails, hoping it doesn’t lol

Sleek and sturdy, conforms well to most monitor backs
Very sturdy, no flex or sag when hanging midsize DT 900 Pro X. Applied well to my curved monitor back after prepping the surface with isopropyl alcohol. The 9 different mounting points give a lot of flexibility and conform to the monitor shape. Great value considering it saves space on my desk, lower maintenance; does not need dusting like a separate stand. The headband pad is very soft (silicone?) with gentle curve that should not leave sharp indentations in headband. I do wish the headband pad were a bit longer for hanging the headset cable when not in use.

Space Saving Headset Stand
Needed a headset stand that saves space, perfect for my gaming setup. Glue strips are holding up so far.
