Ville Lenkkeri
The Lost Fleet: Relentless found its way onto the New York Times bestseller list... Now Victorious leads the charge again-and "Black Jack" Geary is in command... As war continues to rage between the Alliance and Syndicate Worlds, Captain "Black Jack" Geary is promoted to admiral-even though the ruling council fears he may stage a military coup. His new rank gives him the authority to negotiate with the Syndics, who have suffered tremendous losses and may finally be willing to end the war. But an even greater alien threat lurks on the far side of the Syndic occupied space.
The Place of No Roads
"A visitor to a small town in the utmost North that has lost its entire population is met by a surprising, subjective vision. The abandoned coal-mining community beneath the mysterious, pyramid-shaped mountain appears to him not as a depressing, man-made scar on the Arctic landscape, but as a formerly harmonious commonwealth where quantity had given way to quality, and where competitive hierarchies had been abolished in favor of equality. It is as if the town's remote location had not been a source of misery, but instead had mad it a self-sufficient community, in both form and content." "Here, money was deprived of all meaning and had consequently been abandoned altogether as a medium of transaction. In the visitor's dream-soaked mind, the town had once qualified as a utopia in many respects, not least for having failed to exist. In looking for something nonexistent, it is the searching and the dreaming that matter. This collection of photographs is a ballad to all ways of life, and is dedicated to dreams." --Book Jacket.
Pikkukaupungin sairaskertomus
"Medical Records of a Small Town is a study of an eccentric man: For the son, the artist Ville Lenkkeri (*1972), he is a dad, quite impossible to access.For the people in the small town deep in the Finnish woods he is a doctor in good reputation, always at service and known to be funny in a morbid manner.He is one of the last of that kind. For over thirty-five years he received the town folks and filled a large cabinet with their ailment records. He passed away on Sunday, after accomplishing his work on Friday.The publication tells the story of this man not only with photographs but also with stories of the inhabitants and writings of this eccentric.Ville Lenkkeri created a very personal homage to his father.Published on the occasion of the exhibition Pikkukaupunin sairaskertomus / Medical Records of a Small Town at Museum Gustaf, Serlachius museum, M�ntt�, Finland (17 June 2017-24 February 2018).English and Finnish text."
Existence Doubtful
The third book of Finish artist Ville Lenkkeri, Existence Doubtful consists of pictures from Antarctica and Tierra del Fuego as well as of a text that uses the physical journeys as a frame, but takes side steps to subjects like humanism, colonialism, greed, representation and the potentials of photography.This book celebrates the matters and events of doubtful nature as well as illusions and uncertainties that shake the reality based world order and save us from the expected, safe and control.Ville Lenkkeri's pictures move inside the disturbing, unfocused zone between reality and fiction.
Kivettynyt metsä
"The Petrified Forest" is a set of photographs and texts that reflect the memories and mental images Ville Lenkkeri has of the little town in the Finnish woods where he grew up. The photographs are stages but they spring from the emotions and memories that he has and which cause him to still call the place his hometown today. The short texts in the book represent missing pictures in the series and they deepen the understanding of the given situations and thus guide the viewer. The publication "deals not only with subjective memories and growing up in an industrial small town, but also with the structure of truth and nature of representation - a strong link to Lenkkeri's earlier work. The book is the artist's fourth monograph."--Publisher website.

ReGeneration
"This book, the broadest and most enterprising survey of its kind, showcases the creativity, ingenuity, and inspiration of up-and-coming photographic artists in over 200 images. Curators at the Musee de l'Elysee in Lausanne selected the photographers from hundreds of candidates submitted by more than sixty of the world's top photography schools. The panel's choice was made with one key question in mind: are these images likely to be known in twenty years' time?"--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
