Normal?
Who wants to be that?
When Kelly Cutrone''s first book, If You Haveto Cry, Go
Outside, was first published, youngpeople flocked to this new
voice-finally,someone was telling it like it is, in languagethey
spoke. It quickly became a New YorkTimes bestseller, and
fashion publicist KellyCutrone became more than a personality,she
became a beloved guru, mentor, andfairy godmother.
Now she''s back with another no-holds-barredbook to awaken our
souls and kick our assesinto gear. With Normal Gets You
Nowhere,she invites us to get our freak on. History isfull of
successful, world-changing people whodid not fit in. Think Nelson
Mandela, Joanof Arc, Eleanor Roosevelt, Amelia Earhart,John Lennon,
and Rosa Parks. Instead ofchanging themselves to accommodate
thestatus quo or what others thought they shouldbe, these people
hung a light on their differences-and changed humanity in the
process.
"I know you don''t feel normal, so why areyou trying to act it
and prove to everyone youare?" Cutrone says. So much of what we
sayor don''t say, and what we do or don''t do, isdictated by what
others have told us, or whatpeople may think of us. This is not how
weshould be living, by measuring ourselvesagainst the mundane.
An invitation to rethink who you are, what youvalue, and what
you want from life, NormalGets You Nowhere goes beyond how
to reinventyourself and create your own brand, andinvestigates what
it means to live in this worldas a tuned-in, caring individual with
a passionfor making a difference. There''s already anarmy of super
talented uberfreaks changingthe world-isn''t it time you joined
them?
