A combination of powerful prose and dramatic photographs, This is Gonna Hurt is an arresting, deeply personal look through the eyes of a real rock star at a stark, post-addiction world.

Nikki is an excellent teacher. He tells us that even the most unlikely people are beautiful. Those addicts who live in the alleyways and on the streets. Those so-called circus freaks, the bearded woman, the disfigured, the amputees, the little people, the fat women...ect. I have the hard copy of this book and his pictures of those people are in their own way absolutely beautiful...sometimes frightening. I suggest everyone read this book and look at the photos carefully.
