In Normal Gets You Nowhere, she invites us to get our freak on. History is full of successful, world-changing people who did not fit in. Think Nelson Mandela, Joan of Arc, Eleanor Roosevelt, John Lennon. Instead of changing themselves to accommodate the status quo or what others thought they should be, these people hung a light on their differences—and changed humanity in the process. There’s already an army of super-talented uberfreaks changing the world–isn’t it time you joined them?

When Kelly Cutrone's first book, "If You Have to Cry, Go Outside", was first published, young people flocked to this new voice. It quickly became a "New York Times" bestseller, and fashion publicist Kelly Cutrone became more than a personality, she became a beloved guru, mentor, and fairy godmother. I know you don't feel normal, so why are you trying to act it and prove to everyone you are? Cutrone says. So much of what we say or don't say, and what we do or don't do, is dictated by what others have told us, or what people may think of us. This is not how we should be living - by measuring ourselves against the mundane. An invitation to rethink who you are, what you value, and what you want from life, "Normal Gets You Nowhere" goes beyond how to reinvent yourself and create your own brand, and begins to investigate what it means to live in this world as a tuned in, caring individual with a passion for making a difference.
