From the Publisher
From the foreword of Feck Perfuction, by Danielle LaPorte
Victore believes that normalcy is barbed wire to the human spirit. And questions are the wire cutters. This book is a subversive tool for consciousness-raising.
‘Victore’s insights are piercing and invaluable. He reinforces our willingness to be misunderstood and determination to never fall for the mediocrity of practicality. If you care about your work, and care to unleash yourself, read this book.’
-Scott Belsky, founder of Behance and author of Making Ideas Happen.
