Octavio Cesar Martinez writes on the subject of forgiveness with engaging honesty, humility and depth. His deeply personal story is raw, inviting us into his suffering and struggle as he recounts his painful and abusive childhood, growing into a life of rage. But, he also leads us into his experience of freedom and joy, without denial or candy-coating. As Octavio learns to forgive, so do we. If you have been hurt or betrayed, this book is for you. If you have thought about revenge, or imagined punishing someone for their misdeeds, this book is for you. If you have been self-righteous or judgmental, you will benefit. In short, if you're human, it's for you. It's like emotional and spiritual CPR; breathe it in.
