DOWNLOAD EBOOK →A Fragile Beauty is a joyful summing up, in words and photographs, of John Nichols' life in New Mexico, and his writings since 1969. The book is a rich tapestry of his artistic, spiritual, and political evolution in a lovely by fragile land. Using excerpts from his early writings, plus black-and-white new photographs and candid snapshots he took long ago, Nichols acquaints us with the living roots of his work and his persuasions. Finally, he details the baroque, whacky, and ultimately rewarding process of nursing his book, The Milagro Beanfield War, through the Hollywood maze to ultimate fruition under the directorial guidance of Robert Redford. Complementing that intriguing saga are some of the author's pictures from the filming. In addition to the introductory essay, Nichols has chosen from four of his previous books to illustrate themes that lie at the heart of his work: a strong passion for the land, and a deep concern for those who wish to protect it and who struggle for the rights of the human community. These excerpts form an essay that is quintessential Nichols, a humorous, lyrical, and occasionally angry reflection of his beliefs -- Book jacket.

It is devastating and perfect.” — New York Times Book Review The haunting story of a family of dreamers and tale-tellers looking for home in an unwelcoming world. This exquisite and unusual magic realist debut, told in intensely lyrical prose by an award winning author, traces one girl’s migration from war to peace, loss to loss, home to home. Firuzeh and her brother Nour are children of fire, born in an Afghanistan fractured by war. When their parents, their Atay and Abay, decide to leave, they spin fairy tales of their destination, the mythical land and opportunities of Australia. As the family journeys from Pakistan to Indonesia to Nauru, heading toward a hope of home, they must rely on fragile and temporary shelters, strangers both mercenary and kind, and friends who vanish as quickly as they’re found. When they arrive in Australia, what seemed like a stable shore gives way to treacherous currents. Neighbors, classmates, and the government seek their own ends, indifferent to the family’s fate. For Firuzeh, her fantasy worlds provide some relief, but as her family and home splinter, she must surface from these imaginings and find a new way.
