My monthly to yearly routines of finding that once person to share the same fate as I have for the rest of eternity, and then move on to the next just to do it all over again felt like nothing more than just a mundane job.

Misfits are often confused with outcasts. Yet misfits rather find themselves in-between that which fits and that which does not. This volume is interested in this slipperiness of misfits and explores the blockages and the promises of such movements, as well as the processes and conditions that produce misfits, the means that enable them to undo their denomination as misfits, and the practices that turn those who fit into misfits, and vice versa.
