FAILURES OF FORGIVENESS What We Get Wrong and How to Do Better

Forgiveness is misused because it's more complicated than people think, according to an articulate philosopher and expert on emotions and society. You can forgive someone, but what if you're still angry or wary of further transgressions? Are there times when forgiveness should be conditional or withheld altogether? Tracey Conyer Lee narrates with the vocal character of an older person: a slower way of speaking and an exaggerated way of resonating with the emotional tone of the author's ideas. But vocal style aside, she performs with sincerity and never misinterprets the thematic shifts in this outstanding guide. As the author of a previous book on anger, Myisha Cherry offers many useful insights on how forgiveness intersects with the emotions and circumstances of various types of transgressions and hurtful behavior.
