About the Book

Reconcile the irreconcilables? The Side Road: Little Survival Guide in the Orange Cone Kingdom will allow us to generate together a new way of living. More agile, more curious, more exciting. A new way to see the world, to see life. Orange or not. As if there was more than one side. Or because there is always another side. Another way, another opportunity to see ourselves, to imagine ourselves in the world and in life. What a wonderful opportunity to start living again! Today. After all, as my father said, it takes all kinds of people to make a world. And it takes all kinds of paths. Even and especially side roads. So here are very humbly, 13 unavoidable avenues to thwart the disconcerting pressure of orange cones.
