Riding in a helicopter with the Beatles ... Overhearing Jackie Kennedy's conversation with the priest who administered last rites to JFK ... Falling in love at first sight (in a Queens bar) with a woman he would marry ... Catching Joe McCarthy in a lie...Surviving a Brooklyn race riot ... Running for public office in New York City (on a ticket with Norman Mailer) ...These are among the moments that Jimmy Breslin recalls, movingly and hilariously, in his acclaimed memoir -- a book written with all the brashness, candor, and style that have distinguished Breslin's newspaper columns and made him one of the most admired and enjoyed journalists of our time.The starting point: the almost accidental discovery that Breslin required brain surgery. What then unfolds, as Breslin weighs his medical options, is the story of a life crowded with memorable moments and memorable characters -- not least of all, Breslin himself.Binding Type: Paperback

Stylish and Solid, but Mostly Paying for the Aesthetic
Style: desk drawer with pen holder
Product: Upergo Walnut Desk Tray and Pen Holder
Used for: 7 months
Key Features:
– Attractive walnut wood design
– Solid construction with a premium feel
– Helps organize pens and desk accessories neatly
Ratings:
Quality:
The quality feels very solid overall. The wood and finish look great, and it has held up well over months of use without any noticeable wear or issues.
Rating: 5/5
Performance:
It does exactly what it’s supposed to do. It keeps the desk organized, holds pens and small items well, and adds a clean, professional look to the setup.
Rating: 5/5
Value:
Honestly, it’s pretty pricey for what it is. A lot of the cost feels like it’s going toward the aesthetics and walnut finish rather than functionality.
Rating: 3/5
Pros:
– Looks very clean and premium
– Solid and sturdy build
– Great for desk organization
– Adds a nice aesthetic touch to a setup
Cons:
– Expensive for a fairly simple product
Summary:
The Upergo Walnut Desk Tray and Pen Holder is a well-made and attractive desk accessory that does a great job organizing small items while making a setup look more polished. The build quality is solid and the walnut finish looks great, but the price is definitely on the high side for what is ultimately a simple organizer. If aesthetics matter to you, it’s a nice addition, but you’re definitely paying extra for the look.
Overall Rating: 4/5**

Good materials and design
Style: desk drawer with pen holder
Don’t write reviews often. Not a fake/paid elicited review. I just got this and am pleased with the build quality, materials (wood and metal), and design.
