MARINA CANTACUZINO

Recenzje

'There have been few more appropriate and vital moments for this fascinating book to emerge than now as we bear witness to so many acts requiring forgiveness - the complexity of the practice of forgiveness, its meanings, its measure as a force for change are all here - and most of all, its power to prevent the repetition of the worst in our human behaviour and the possibility of finding freedom from hatred' Emma Thompson

O autorze

Marina Cantacuzino is an author, broadcaster and award-winning journalist who has written for most British mainstream publications including the Guardian, the DailyTelegraph and Marie Claire. In 2003, in response to the invasion of Iraq, she embarked on a personal project collecting stories of people who had lived through trauma and injustice, and yet sought forgiveness rather than revenge. As a result Cantacuzino founded The Forgiveness Project and started speaking widely about forgiveness and restorative storytelling.

The Forgiveness Project continues to work with both victims/survivors and former perpetrators to better understand how individuals and communities can rebuild their lives and create a more compassionate world following hurt and trauma.
