I always enjoy this author. This book was an interesting read and included a number of examples and depictions of people’s route to fame or not. Thank you to # NetGalley and the publisher for an ARC.

I think this may be one of the coolest book of the time that talks about famous people, painto, art, innovations and discoveries. The interesting thought in the book is about HOW those became so well known and recognisable by humanity. The idea is the opportunity given to people, the chance of becoming a president, or exhibiting in front of right audience, or having an exposure at the right time and in the right spot. There are plenty of examples from Da Vinci with Mona Lisa pairing that wasn't famous or valued until it got stolen in 1911 to Beatles who got famous after long time performing. The discussion is around chance and opportunities in our lives that can support uncovering our potential. The sad part is that not all of us have this chance and some miss an opportunity.
