Talented author and self proclaimed misfit, Lidia Yuknavitch shares her life journey through an abusive childhood, the devastating loss of a child, overwhelming shame and self destructive choices, culminating in self acceptance and the recognition that "the radiance falls on all of us and we are nothing without each other." She speaks directly to everyone who has ever felt a sense of not quite belonging, of not being good enough, when she says, "You have the ability to reinvent yourself endlessly. That's your beauty."
