This book is a celebration of voices from the margins. It brings together 32 captivating personal essays from across the globe, celebrating the spirit of living, and exploring individual quest for identity and existence.

As the 32 voices intertwine in this book the collective narrative emerges as a powerful force challenging the very foundations of conventions and norms.
