In Ferris's powerful and brilliant new book, Mighty Gorgeous, she once again demonstrates an uncanny and extraordinary ability to grab you by the heart and take your breath away, like no one else. Each vignette glitters with truth, honesty, inspiration, and a mind-bending understanding of how life is not about either/or but a complex constellation of experience, scars, joys and hope. Her words build epic revelations from life's most intimate and private details, and ring with abiding truths that will guide and comfort you for the rest of your life. -Jessica Keener, author of Night Swim and Strangers in Budapest
