This volume brings together the complete fiction of the author of Passing and Quicksand, one of the most gifted writers of the Harlem Renaissance. Throughout her short but brilliant literary career, Nella Larsen wrote piercing dramas about the black middle class that featured sensitive, spirited heroines struggling to find a place where they belonged. Passing, Larsen's best-known work, is a disturbing story about the unraveling lives of two childhood friends, one of whom turns her back on her past and marries a white bigot. Just as disquieting is the portrait in Quicksand of Helga Crane, half black and half white, who is unable to escape her loneliness no matter where and with whom she lives. Race and marriage offer few securities here or in the other stories in this compulsively readable collection, rich in psychological complexity and imbued with a sense of place that brings Harlem vibrantly to life.

Handy for storing fresh produce
The stacking baskets are as advertised. Easy to assemble without instructions. A little wobbly as expected but is sturdy enough; even better once propped in a corner. As with most things, it can last for quite a while if handled with care. Measurements are accurate. At 38" tall, I knew that the set of 4 baskets would have towered 2" above my countertop (36"). Now, I think that the set of 3 would have worked just fine at about 29" tall. I like that this can fit in such a tiny 12" floor space and I am able to reclaim some much needed counter space. Talk about uncluttered! Overall this was a good buy but I do think that it is a bit overpriced.

Very firm to be placed on counter top. Baskets have enough space to store onions, fruits etc. Fair price as well.

Better Have Counter Space
Purchased with the idea to reduce counter clutter and have central location of fruits and vegetables. The idea behind the stacking basket bins is fine, but with limited counter space, it just seems to add to the clutter. I am also only able to use the bottom plate and one basket as stacking height would extend high enough to block cabinet doors. Good idea, but not for those with limited counter space and or lower cabinet clearance. Check measurements and counter space.

Excellent product
I was looking for onion and potato storage and I am very happy to find this. Even though item made with plastic material, it is very sturdy and easy to assemble. I store 3 bags of onions( costco bags) and a potato bag. I have very small and narrow space for onions and potato storage, and this stackable baskets are perfect .
