On a September night in 1971, a few days after getting busted for dropping acid, a sixteen-year-old curls up in the corner of her ratty bedroom and begins to write.Now the truth can finally be revealed about the mysterious day long ago when the authorities found a child, calmly walking in the boiling desert, covered with blood.
The girl is Roberta Rohbeson, and her rant against a world bounded by the cruddy top bedroom of a cruddy rental house on a very cruddy mud road soon becomes a detailed account of another story, one that she has kept silent since she was eleven.
Darkly funny and resonant with humanity, Cruddy, masterfully intertwines Roberta's stories -- part Easy Rider and part bipolar Wizard of Oz. These stories, the backbone of Roberta's short life, include a one-way trip across America fueled by revenge and greed and a vivid cast of characters, starring Roberta's dangerous father, the owners of the Knocking Hammer Bar-cum-slaughterhouse, and runaway adolescents. With a teenager's eye for freakish detail and a nervous ability to make the most horrible scenes seem hilarious, Cruddy is a stunning achievement

Very nice for the price! Don’t regret buying it
Color: Natural - Rectangle, Size: 6-panel, Color: Natural - Rectangle, Size: 6-panel
Better than I thought. I bought it for my remote job and it blocks everything out perfectly.
* Came pre-built (thank goodness), sturdy, & no tears/rips in the “fabric”.
* Everything is in good shape.
* Folds up nicely
* Doesn’t tip over easily (you gotta put some force into it).
* It’s not transparent, however, light does filter through and if someone is standing or walking close to the divider (like a few inches away from the divider) you can see a shadow/a figure.
* I have a standing desk and it still covers everything (I’m 5’6” & my camera gets about to 6’4ish)
Photos are of me sitting & standing and the dividers still covering my entire background minus my ceiling light fixture

Love it it was perfect for what I needed it for. Good quality!
Size: 4 Panel, Color: Black
It like a very dark chocolate brown/black. What I liked most about it is that you just pull it out of the box take the long plastic film off of it and it's ready to go. It has protective feet on the bottom. It's very attractive and it was so easy. It's so nice when you have a product you don't have to assemble.

Shipped quickly and as described
It was what I expected as functionality, lightweight and easy to move about. I plan to use it in my enclosed patio to obscure weight bench and wts. My only complaint is that the bamboo cover on one edge is not secure. But I will probably use a magic marker to cover the natural back that is showing. I don’t have time to return it as my event is coming soon.
