By: Michiko KakutaniAn urgent examination of how disruptive politics, technology, and art are capsizing old assumptions in a great wave of change breaking over today’s world, creating both opportunity and peril—from the Pulitzer Prize–winning critic and author of the New York Times bestseller The Death of Truth.
“In this dazzling and brilliant book, Michiko Kakutani explains the cascading chaos of our era and points to ways that we can regain some stability.”—Walter Isaacson, author of Elon Musk
The twenty-first century is experiencing a watershed moment defined by chaos and uncertainty, as one emergency cascades into another, underscoring the larger dynamics of change that are fueling instability across the world.
Since the global financial crisis of 2008, people have increasingly lost trust in institutions and elites, while seizing upon new digital tools to sidestep traditional gatekeepers. As a result, powerful new voices—once regarded as radical, unorthodox, or marginal—are disrupting the status quo in politics, business, and culture. Meanwhile, social and economic inequalities are stoking populist rage across the world, toxic partisanship is undermining democratic ideals, and the internet and AI have become high-speed vectors for the spread of misinformation.
Writing with a critic’s understanding of cultural trends and a journalist’s eye for historical detail, Michiko Kakutani looks at the consequences of these new asymmetries of power. She maps the migration of ideas from the margins to the mainstream and explores the growing influence of outsiders—those who have sown chaos and fear (like Donald Trump), and those who have provided inspirational leadership (like Ukraine’s president Volodymyr Zelensky). At the same time, she situates today’s multiplying crises in context with those that defined earlier hinge moments in history, from the waning of the Middle Ages to the transition between the Gilded Age and the Progressive Era at the end of the nineteenth century.
Kakutani argues that today’s crises are not only signs of an interconnected globe’s profound vulnerabilities, but also stress tests pointing to the essential changes needed to survive this tumultuous era and build a more sustainable future.

Engineered PERFECTLY!!!
Size: Queen, Style: With Headbroad
So the reviews are pretty accurate, this bed is UGLY!!! A bright ugly orange hahaha! BUUUUUUUT, if color is not an issue for you (like it wasn’t for me), THIS BED IS SOLID!!!
Solid wood, solid build, solid product!!! Also I want to add that the way it’s designed, it’s very hard to mess up when building. They engineered this bed that all pieces fit perfectly together when the correct pieces are placed in the correct spots. If the holes are off, switch the pieces around until the holes match perfectly! I am in love with this bed!!!

Great bed frame solid wood
Size: Queen, Style: With Headbroad
I read other reviews about this product and someone said that it was sort of orange in color and yes it was I might try and stain the wood a different color not sure but it still looks okay I am not sure if I follow the directions correctly I installed the head board with the hardware showing from the front but I switched it to the back and it looks much better now great value seems well built easy to put together the only problem I had was with the sides I had them switched the boards that are attached go to the top not the bottom other than that it went easy to follow the directions

Too good to be true
Size: King, Style: With Headbroad
Very orange, wish i would’ve read the reviews better. The two cross bars are too long so we had to drill our own holes into 2 of the 14 and make it work, one if the feet didnt have threads and i’m pretty sure when my mattress arrives it’ll hang over the bed.

Sturdy Big Kid Bed
Size: Twin, Style: With Headbroad
My son loves his new bed! He is in this "big kid" bed now and he has adjusted well. I built this with my husband and the instructions are easy to follow. It helps to have a power drill to drill the screws in quickly for the platform. The bed is very sturdy and stable and has a very classic look to it.
