In this new opus, A Beautiful Catastrophe, Magnum photographer Bruce Gilden celebrates a trademark style with abandon, firmly ensconsing him in the pantheon of New York City photographic poets.'

This book is on how one encounters various situations and circumstances every single day. Some good, some not so good but as long as we find peace in that chaos it is okay because life is after all a peaceful chaos. This book is to inspire others who want to quit in life. Our life is like a roller coaster with its own ups and downs.
This is young adult fiction. No. Not the dark stuff. None of that. A Beautiful Catastrophe is all about a normal life gone wrong. Its about my life gone wrong. Its all about my obsessions with fictional characters, my habit of sniffing books before reading them, my insanity, my friends, my family, my passions, and oh, this book contains a lot of stuff about celebrities. Thats me: Miss Obsessed-who-hates-being-attached-to-anyone. This book is a dive into the world of teens: the fun, the craziness, the friends, the loves, the hatred especially towards maths. Its about how I get into trouble and always get away with it. Its about how topsy-turvy a teens life can be. I messed up my math exam; I fought with my best friend over a trivial issue; I fell off my bike and the whole town knew; I kissed a guy and didnt regret it. For the first time ever, something is about me. My name is Nikita Achanta, and this is my story.

Beautiful Catastrophe is the remarkable firsthand account of how Doug Lemon's life was drastically changed and the way he was miraculously healed from stage four lung cancer. In a refreshingly transparent way, Doug shares the personal struggles he and his family endured, as well as the joys, reflections, and insights from God's healing touch on his life. This narrative of one family's journey from the brink of death to the life they had always dreamed of is both an adventure and a source of inspiration to all who face seemingly insurmountable challenges.
No one ever chooses to stop at Black Rock Mesa, it's too desolate. The brutal wind, ever-present and temperamental, tests the willpower of the most stalwart residents. So, when a mysterious woman impulsively disembarks from a bus and gets blown into the town's general store, her presence causes quite a stir. She says little, but her Asian features earn her the nickname "Tokyo." Deciding to stay in town, she reveals little about her past, and is comforted to find little is asked. Slowly she comes to see that Black Rock is not like other towns -- due to the wind, everything, even time, works a bit differently. Black Rock, she learns, was founded by three prospectors looking for gold -- Noah, Shlomo and Apie. Noah, the most charismatic of the three, attracted quarrymen to this unforgiving place to tirelessly chip and haul the slate down from the mesa. But the big gaps left in the stories of the past hint to Tokyo that the town folk have secrets bigger than her own. No one is talking, not even the man Tokyo takes up with, Luke, Noah's son. This reticence suits Tokyo just fine, until one day a strange man shows up in Black Rock with revelations. Ultimately, no secret is immune.
