Este es un recorrido a través de las personas que utilizan internet para desafiar los límites de lo que se considera tabú y lo que significa ser normal. La obra explora cómo la gente usa internet para encontrar una comunidad, construir conexiones y crear su identidad de formas que cuestionan las normas sexuales establecidas. Basada en una serie de entrevistas realizadas para la columna de ciencias humanas What It’s Like de la revista New York, cada historia sumerge al lector en el mundo íntimo de una persona que está lidiando con un conjunto de circunstancias únicas relativas a la sexualidad. En busca de la normalidad celebra el poder de la evolución de los medios a la hora de ayudar a las personas a reescribir el guion de sus vidas y, al mismo tiempo, ofrece una advertencia sobre el peligro de esa supuesta libertad sin límites. Tsoulis-Reay muestra el constante poder en la búsqueda de la pertenencia, para los humanos y para la sociedad. Tal y como la felicidad es el propósito de la vida, encontrar la normalidad es quizá la principal lucha del ser humano.
Finding Normal explores how people are using the internet to find community, forge connections, and create identity in ways that challenge a variety of sexual norms. Based on a highly candid interview series conducted for New York magazine's human science column-"What It's Like"-each story in Finding Normal intimately immerses the reader in the world of a person who is grappling with a unique set of circumstances relating to sexuality. Finding Normal celebrates the power of our evolving media landscape for helping people rewrite the script for their lives and offers a warning about the danger of that seemingly limitless freedom. Tsoulis-Reay shows the enduring power of the search for belonging-for humans and society. Like happiness of life purpose, finding normal is perhaps the definitive human struggle.
