Lidia Yuknavitch: The Beauty Of Being A Misfit

To those who feel like they don't belong: there is beauty in being a misfit. Author Lidia Yuknavitch shares her own wayward journey in an intimate recollection of patchwork stories about loss, shame and the slow process of self-acceptance. 'Even at the moment of your failure, you are beautiful,' she says. 'You don't know it yet, but you have the ability to reinvent yourself endlessly. That's your beauty.'
